- Title
Four Dilemmas of the "Superstring theory" and new responses from the "Singularity theory" in the view of Information Ontology.

- Abstract
Modern cosmology has two competing theories of the origin of the universe: the "Singularity theory" and the "Superstring theory". Four Dilemmas of the "Superstring theory" are presented: the incompleteness of the eleven space–time dimensions, the inextricable dependence on the "Space–Time Background", the "Zero-Brane theory" admitting stuff smaller than the Planck scale, and the pure mathematical theory that cannot be falsified by experiments. Although the "Singularity theory" is faced with many critiques from the "Superstring theory", from the perspective of Information Ontology, treating the "Singularity" as "Origin Information" can dissolve these troubles well. For the "Singularity theory", the new philosophical thinking framework effectively explains the parameter problems of the universe, and gives satisfied response to the challenges from the "Superstring theory". As a result, the "Singularity theory" has a more competitive advantage on the origin of the universe.
