From Black Holes to Holographic Spacetime - Rothschild Lecture

Explore the fascinating implications of Hawking's groundbreaking discovery on black holes as thermodynamic systems in this Rothschild Lecture by Professor Robert de Mello Koch. Delve into the concept of holographic spacetime and its profound implications for our understanding of reality. Examine the arguments suggesting that our three-dimensional space and one-dimensional time universe might be a holographic projection of a two-dimensional space and one-dimensional time reality. Gain insights into the connections between black holes, quantum mechanics, and the nature of spacetime in this thought-provoking seminar presented at the Isaac Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences.
