I'll give your question an answer. I should note that I'm not an expert in this, but I found a link for you (http://www.damtp.cam.ac.uk/user/gr/public/holo/). Do you know what anti de-Sitter space is? Do you know what Conformal Field Theory is? I've never studied CFT, but have studied a fair bit of relativity (hence I know what AdS is) and touched on the some QFT. Thus, I found this site useful in answering the question. However, I have no idea if you will find it useful, since I don't know what you know!

This thread is also in the wrong place: this is not a cosmological theory!



Moderator note: Moved to General Physics... for now.
