Robert Brandenburger: Emergent space and its possible observational signatures

The physical theories which are used in cosmology break down in the very early universe. I will discuss what conditions a theory of the very early universe has to obey in order to be able to explain current observations on the large-scale structure of the universe. One class of models which obey these conditions is ``emergent cosmology". I will explain how such a scenario could emerge from basic principles of superstring theory and how it can be tested with observations.
