**Authors:** Alex Buchel

arXiv: 1705.08560 · 2017-09-13

## TL;DR

This paper investigates how supersymmetry influences the development of singularities in holographic models, concluding that singularities persist even with supersymmetry, and highlights the need for a string theory embedding.

## Contribution

It extends the holographic singularity development scenario to supersymmetric models, showing the persistence of singularities and emphasizing the challenge of embedding in string theory.

## Key findings

- Singularity persists in supersymmetric extension of BBL model
- Supersymmetry does not resolve the singularity issue
- Highlights the need for string theory embedding of the mechanism

## Abstract

We study the effects of supersymmetry on singularity development scenario in holography presented in \cite{Bosch:2017ccw} (BBL). We argue that the singularity persists in a supersymmetric extension of the BBL model. The challenge remains to find a string theory embedding of the singularity mechanism.
