Abstract

In this chapter we will consider holographic approaches to cosmology, that is, to take advantage of the duality to a weakly coupled (therefore calculable) field theory provided by the AdS/CFT correspondence and its generalizations, gauge/gravity duality, in order to calculate the behaviour near the strongly coupled gravity near the cosmological singularity.
