Description

I will discuss a few questions connecting dark matter and primordial black holes: are they THE dark matter? If so, how can we tell? Did LIGO detect primordial black holes? Do light black holes stop evaporating around the Planck scale? If so, are they detectable? Did primordial black holes generate the dark matter and/or the baryon asymmetry?
