Abstract

 In this talk, I will describe recent work on holographic correspondences in spacetimes which interpolate from anti-de Sitter space in the deep bulk to asymptotic regions which share some properties with flat space. Examples include the linear dilaton throat in the F1-NS5 solution and the NCOS decoupling limit of the D1-D5 system. In both examples, null geodesics take infinite coordinate time to reach the boundary, the causal structure resembles that of Minkowski space, and we can sensibly study radiation near future null infinity. These spacetimes are good solutions of string theory and thus might be considered candidates for a top-down sort of celestial holography.
