Abstract

A few different examples of Euclidean wormholes with AdS asymptotics are constructed. These are geometries which are completely regular, and are solutions of ten- or eleven-dimensional supergravity. We point out that such geometries are puzzling from the AdS/CFT point of view, and try to speculate on possible resolutions of this puzzle. A better understanding of the physics of these geometries could lead to interesting insights into the nature of quantum gravity and to some new interpretations of closed cosmologies.
