Strings and Singularities
Abstract
Description
We review aspects of spacetime singularities from the view point of string theory. Examples considered include cosmological, cosmic string and black-hole singularities. We also discuss the consistency of viewing black-holes as excited states of fundamental strings (based on talk presented at Salamfest, March 1993, Trieste).
