Holographic View of Singularities in General Relativity (Part II) I will discuss new features which emerge when one studies several types of singularities present in General Relativity using methods stemming from the AdS/CFT correspondence. Some of the issues involved are the black hole information "paradox", complementarity and the nature and properties of space like singularities. I will attempt to present in each of the lectures problems which I feel need further study.
