“…Classical singularities in space-time metrics are important in early Universe cosmology and in the description of the black hole interior which contains a singularity [31] [32] [33] [34] [35] [36] [37]. Attempts to resolve these singularities have been made using loop quantum gravity [38] [39], asymptotic safety [40] and string theory [41] [50].…”

We discuss three separate types of infinities that occur in non-supersymmetric canonical gravity and string theory. We consider UV perturbative singularities in non-supersymmetric gravity coupled to matter and how these are related to loop corrections to beta functions for non-supersymmetric strings. Next we consider classical cosmological singularities that occur in these equations and discuss a specific singular cosmology of Dudas and Mourad for non-supersymmetric string theory. Finally we discuss the infinities that occur in quantum cosmology associated with topology change and discuss how non-supersymmetric string quantum cosmology can be used to address them.
