Abstract: I will introduce the local concept of Apparent Horizon, provide examples, and show how it is related to the global concept of Event Horizon. I will discuss the first fully non-linear numerical simulations of black hole binaries in a de Sitter universe and comment on the various types of apparent horizons that can be found (black hole, white hole and cosmological).
