Abstract :

Recent years have seen a flurry of activities to understand the non-linear behaviour of

General Relativity. Motivated by gravity wave efforts, fundamental questions and

holographic applications, these efforts have revealed both intriguing simplicity and

new highly complex phenomena. I will discuss how nonlinear gravitational behaviour

can yield turbulent behavior, its possible observational implications and what this may

imply in the broader context of gravity.
