Abstract
The holographic space-time approach to inflation provides a well defined and self-contained framework to study the early universe. Based on a quasi-local quantum gravity theory generalizing string theory beyond AdS backgrounds, it addresses fundamental questions like the arrow of time and the entropy of the initial cosmological state. It was recently argued that it also provides a naturel explanation for dark matter in the form of primordial black holes. The orignal idea however suffers from troubles that can be cured by considering instead Planck relics. This possibility is investigated and paths for observational confirmation are pointed out.
