Descripción
The discovery of gravitational waves has opened a new experimental window into the Universe. The fact that the relevant dynamics is often out of equilibrium is both a formidable challenge and a golden opportunity. I will explain how holography, a tool that originated in string theory, can shed light on the relevant physical processes in cosmology and astrophysics. In particular, I will describe applications to cosmological phase transitions, to neutron star mergers and to spacetime singularities.
