English abstract:
We focus on the numerical simulation of non-stationary asymptotic anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetimes - a certain class of solutions to Einsteins equations with negative cosmological constant.
After introducing asymptotic AdS spacetimes and the anti-de Sitter / Conformal Field Theory (AdS/CFT) correspondence, the holographic framework is demonstrated on the numerical simulation of the thermalization process of a strongly coupled N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills plasma.
Further we discuss the holographic computation of entanglement entropy within an initially highly anisotropic AdS black hole geometry.

Keywords:
AdS-CFT correspondence, black holes, holography, quark-gluon plasma
