"Black Holes and Fuzzballs"
to be presented by Dr. Ilies Messamah (NITheP/University of the Witwatersrand)
Abstract: In this talk I will present an idea that, if correct, has the potential to solve the black hole paradoxes.
It goes under the name ``the fuzzball proposal'' and was initiated by Mathur. First, I will start by reviewing the black hole puzzles. Then, I will discuss some key concepts in the fuzzball proposal. After that, I will review an application of these concepts to the case of the so called LLM geometries. Finally, I will present some preliminary results about checking the aforementioned application.
