Abstract:
We investigate the laws of thermodynamics and the validity of the cosmic censorship conjecture in the Kerr–Newman–de Sitter black hole under charged particle absorption. Here, the black hole undergoes infinitesimal changes because of the momenta carried by the particle entering it. The cosmic censorship conjecture is tested by whether the black hole can be overcharged beyond the extremal condition under absorption. The changes in the black hole violate the second law of thermodynamics. Furthermore, this is related to the cosmic censorship conjecture. To resolve this violation, we impose a reference energy of the particle at the asymptotic region based on the first law of thermodynamics. Under imposition of the reference energy, the absorption satisfies the laws of thermodynamics, and the extremal black hole cannot be overcharged. Thus, the cosmic censorship conjecture is valid under the absorption.

Abstract:
According to the singularity theorem, a curvature singularity can be formed in a gravitational collapse under the null energy condition. Eventually, the singularity possesses sufficient mass density for the horizon to appear, and the compact object thereby evolves into a black hole. Hence, on the basis of general relativity, the singularity must be located at the center of the black hole. Our curiosity begins here: can we see the singularity? To answer this question, the cosmic censorship conjecture comes into play. That conjecture, which was originally proposed by Penrose, has two versions. The weak version states that a static observer located outside the black hole cannot see the singularity. Furthermore, the strong version states that no observers can see the singularity. Studies regarding the cosmic censorship conjecture are still ongoing, and evidently, its validation requires a deep understanding of the theory of gravity, including general relativity. Herein, we review the progress of studies associated with the weak and the strong cosmic censorship conjectures. Furthermore, we briefly describe the Penrose process for extracting energy from a black hole.

Abstract:
We investigate weak cosmic censorship conjecture in charged torus-like black hole by the complex scalar field scattering. Using the relation between the conserved quantities of a black hole and the scalar field, we can calculate the change of the energy and charge within the infinitesimal time. The change of the enthalpy is connected to the change of energy, then we use those results to test whether the first law, the second law as well as the weak cosmic censorship conjecture are valid. In the normal phase–space, the first law of thermodynamics and the weak cosmic censorship conjecture are valid, and the second law of thermodynamics is not violated. For the specific black hole under scalar field scattering we consider, in the extended phase–space, the first law of thermodynamics and the weak cosmic censorship conjecture are valid. However, the second law of thermodynamics is violated when the black hole’s initial charge reaches a certain value.

Abstract:
In this paper, we investigate the minimal length effects on the thermodynamics and weak cosmic censorship conjecture in a RN-AdS black hole via charged particle absorption. We first use the generalized uncertainty principle (GUP) to investigate the minimal length effect on the Hamilton-Jacobi equation. After the deformed Hamilton-Jacobi equation is derived, we use it to study the variations of the thermodynamic quantities of a RN-Ads black hole via absorbing a charged particle. Furthermore, we check the second law of thermodynamics and the weak cosmic censorship conjecture in two phase spaces. In the normal phase space, the second law of thermodynamics and the weak cosmic censorship conjecture are satisfied in the usual and GUP-deformed cases, and the minimal length effect makes the increase of entropy faster than the usual case. After the charge particle absorption, the extremal RN-AdS black hole becomes nonextremal. In the extended phase space, the black hole entropy can either increase or decrease. When T>2Pr+, the second law is satisfied. When T<2Pr+, the second law of thermodynamics is violated for the extremal or near-extremal black hole. Finally, we find that the weak cosmic censorship conjecture is legal for extremal and near-extremal RN-Ads black holes in the GUP-deformed case.

Abstract:
The weak cosmic censorship conjecture is a central open problem in classical general relativity. Under the assumption of spherical symmetry, Christodoulou has investigated the conjecture for two different matter models; a scalar field and dust. He has shown that the conjecture holds true for a scalar field but that it is violated in the case of dust. The outcome of the conjecture is thus sensitive to which model is chosen to describe matter. Neither a scalar field nor dust are realistic matter models. Collisionless matter, or Vlasov matter, is a simple matter model but can be considered to be realistic in the sense that it is used by astrophysicists. The present status on the weak cosmic censorship conjecture for the Einstein–Vlasov system is reviewed here.

Abstract:
The Penrose strong cosmic censorship conjecture asserts that Cauchy horizons inside dynamically formed black holes are unstable to remnant matter fields that fall into the black holes. The physical importance of this conjecture stems from the fact that it provides a necessary condition for general relativity to be a truly deterministic theory of gravity. Determining the fate of the Penrose conjecture in nonasymptotically flat black hole spacetimes has been the focus of intense research efforts in recent years. In this paper, we provide a remarkably compact proof, which is based on Bekenstein’s generalized second law of thermodynamics, for the validity of the intriguing Penrose conjecture in physically realistic (dynamically formed) curved black hole spacetimes.

Abstract:
End state of gravitational collapse and the related cosmic censorship conjecture continue to be amongst the most important open problems in gravitation physics today. My purpose here is to bring out several aspects related to gravitational collapse and censorship, which may help towards a better understanding of the issues involved. Possible physical constraints on gravitational collapse scenarios are considered. It is concluded that the best hope for censorship lies in analyzing the genericity and stability properties of the currently known classes of collapse models which lead to the formation of naked singularities, rather than black holes, as the final state of collapse and which develop from a regular initial data.

Abstract:
It has been shown previously that an extremal Reissner–Nordström or an extremal Kerr black hole cannot be overcharged or overspun by a test particle, if radiative and self-force effects are neglected. In this paper, we consider extremal charged and rotating black holes with cosmological constants. By studying the motion of test particles, we find the following results: An extremal Reissner–Nordström anti-de Sitter (RN–AdS) black hole can be overcharged by a test particle but an extremal Reissner–Nordström de Sitter (RN–dS) black hole cannot be overcharged. We also show that both extremal Kerr–de Sitter (Kerr–dS) and Kerr–anti-de Sitter (Kerr–AdS) black holes can be overspun by a test particle, implying a possible breakdown of the cosmic censorship conjecture. For the Kerr–AdS case, the overspinning requires that the energy of the particle be negative, a reminiscent of the Penrose process. In contrast to the extremal RN and Kerr black holes, in which cases the cosmic censorship is upheld, our results suggest some subtle relations between the cosmological constants and the cosmic censorship. We also discuss the effect of radiation reaction for the Kerr–dS case and find that the magnitude of energy loss due to gravitational radiation may not be enough to prevent the violation of the cosmic censorship.

Abstract:
Cosmic censorship is known to fail in some well-controlled phenomena, calling into question the predictive power of General Relativity and opening up the possibility of observing Planck-scale physics. We propose that the cosmic censorship conjecture can be amended so that its spirit prevails. Naked singularities that, classically, have zero mass are allowed. Physically, these are Planck-sized “black holes”, which evaporate in a few Planck times. General Relativity fails only for a tiny interval in time, to then quickly regain control in a Miltonian evolution that returns us to the predictive paradise of Einstein’s equations. If this refinement of the conjecture is correct, then, even though Nature does allow to expose breakdowns in the smooth fabric of spacetime, it limits them to a mostly harmless minimum.

We investigate the effect of magnetic field on the process of overcharging magnetized Reissner–Nordström black hole. It is well known that a four dimensional charged black hole could be overcharged. Contrary to this, we show that a magnetized charged black hole could not be overcharged beyond threshold value of the magnetic field. This occurs because the magnetic field does not allow for particle to reach black hole horizon. Thus magnetic field beyond its threshold value could restore the cosmic censorship conjecture.

Abstract:
The singularity theorems of Hawking and Penrose tell us that singularities are common place in general relativity. Singularities not only occur at the beginning of the Universe at the Big Bang, but also in complete gravitational collapses that result in the formation of black holes. If singularities — except the one at the Big Bang — ever become “naked,” i.e. not shrouded by black hole horizons, then it is expected that problems would arise and render general relativity indeterministic. For this reason, Penrose proposed the cosmic censorship conjecture, which states that singularities should never be naked. Various counterexamples to the conjecture have since been discovered, but it is still not clear under which kind of physical processes one can expect violation of the conjecture. In this short review, I briefly examine some progresses in space–time singularities and cosmic censorship conjecture. In particular, I shall discuss why we should still care about the conjecture, and whether we should be worried about some of the counterexamples. This is not meant to be a comprehensive review, but rather to give an introduction to the subject, which has recently seen an increase of interest.

Abstract:
By neglecting the effects of self-force and radiation, we investigate the possibility of destroying the Kerr-MOG black hole through the point particle absorption process. Using the instability of event horizon and equation of particle motion, we get the upper and lower energy bounds allowed for a matter particle to produce the naked singularity. We find that the energy gap always exists between the upper and lower energy bounds for both extremal and near-extremal black holes, which means some tailored particles can actually lead to the violation of the weak cosmic censorship conjecture. However, when considering the effect of the adiabatic process, the result shows that the Kerr-MOG black hole gets more stable instead of a naked singularity, and thus the weak cosmic censorship conjecture can be restored at some level.

Abstract:
In this paper, a generic counterexample to the strong cosmic censor conjecture is exhibited. More precisely — taking into account that the conjecture lacks any precise formulation yet — first we make sense of what one would mean by a "generic counterexample" by introducing the mathematically unambigous and logically stronger concept of a "robust counterexample". Then making use of Penrose' nonlinear graviton construction (i.e. twistor theory) and a Wick rotation trick we construct a smooth Ricci-flat but not flat Lorentzian metric on the largest member of the Gompf — Taubes uncountable radial family of large exotic ℝ4's. We observe that this solution of the Lorentzian vacuum Einstein's equations with vanishing cosmological constant provides us with a sort of counterexample which is weaker than a "robust counterexample" but still reasonable to consider as a "generic counterexample". It is interesting that this kind of counterexample exists only in four dimensions.

Abstract:
In this work, we investigate validity of the weak form of the cosmic censorship conjecture in the interaction of Kerr–Sen black holes with neutral test fields. Previous studies of the Klein–Gordon equation on Kerr–Sen background imply that superradiance occurs for scalar fields. We show that scalar fields can overspin a nearly extremal black hole into a naked singularity, but the modes that could overspin an extremal black hole are not absorbed due to superradiance. From Kerr analogy one can naively expect superradiance to be absent for fermionic fields. In such a case overspinning becomes generic and also applies to extremal Kerr–Sen black holes. This robust violation of cosmic censorship cannot be fixed by backreaction effects which are ignored in this work. These results are analogous to the Kerr case.

Abstract:
According to the Cosmic Censorship hypothesis realistic singularities should be hidden by an event horizon. However there are many examples of physically realistic space–times which are geodesically incomplete, and hence possess singularities according to the usual definition, which are not inside an event horizon. Many of these counterexamples to the cosmic censorship conjecture have a curvature tensor which is reasonably behaved (for example bounded or integrable) as one approaches the singularity. We give a class of weak singularities which may be described as having distributional curvature1. Because of the non–linear nature of Einstein's equations such distributional geometries are described using a diffeomorphism invariant theory of non–linear generalised functions2. We also investigate the propagation of test fields on space–times with weak singularities. We give a class of singularities3,4 which do not disrupt the Cauchy development of test fields and result in space–times which satisfy Clarke's criterion of 'generalised hyperbolicity'. We consider that points which are well behaved in this way, and where Einstein's equations make sense distributionally, should be regarded as interior points of the space–time rather than counterexamples to cosmic censorship.

Abstract:
According to the cosmic censorship conjecture, it is impossible for nature to have a physical singularity without a horizon because if it were to arise in any formalism, for instance as an extremal black hole (Kerr or Reissner-Nordstrom) then the surface gravity κ = 0, which is a strict violation of the third law of black hole thermodynamics. In this paper we explore whether a true singularity can exist without defying this law.

Abstract:
Cosmic censorship!: black hole wrapped up by its entropy and hidden by its event horizon. In this paper, we postulate a metric to solve the Einstein equations of general relativity, which predicts the thermodynamic behavior of a gigantic mass that collapses to a black hole; taking into account the third law of thermodynamics that states that neither physical process can produce a naked singularity. However, under certain conditions, the model allows to evident violation to the cosmic censorship, exposing the hole nakedness. During the collapse of the hole, quantum effects appear: the area decrease and radiation produced has a high entropy, so that increases total entropy and expose the presence of the hole, while the appearance of the event horizon hide the singularity of the exterior gazes. It is verified that in certain circumstances, the model predicts that the hole mass is bigger than its angular momentum; and in all circumstances, this predicts an hole with enormous superficial graveness that satisfy a relationship of the three parameters that describe the hole (mass, charge and angular momentum); factors all indicative that the singularity is not naked. Then, there are no apparent horizons in accord with cosmic censorship conjecture. Even though the surface gravity of the hole prevents destroying its horizon wrapping singularity, there exists evidence of this singularity by the results of the spin-mass relationship and the escape velocity obtained. The lost information and the slow rate of rotation of the semi-major axis of the mass (dragging space and time around itself as it rotates), agree with Einstein's prediction, show the transport of energy through heat and mass transfer, which were measured by entropy of the hole by means of coordinated semi-spherical that include the different types of intrinsic energy to the process of radiation of the hole event horizon.

Abstract:
We prove the stability of a spacetime with a naked singularity under scalar field perturbations, where the perturbations are regular at the singularity. This spacetime, found by Janis, Newman and Winicour and independently by Wyman, is sourced by a massless scalar field and also arises as a certain limit of a class of charged dilatonic solutions in string theory. This stability result opens up specific questions for investigation related to the cosmic censorship conjecture and the mechanism by which it is implemented in nature.

Abstract:
We discuss the spherical collapse of a two fluid system: a string fluid and a null fluid described by a generalized Vaidya metric. This led us to explicitly describe the effect of a string fluid on the established picture of a null fluid collapse (Vaidya collapse). It is found that there is a shrinkage of the initial data space for naked singularities of Vaidya collapse upon taking into account a string fluid. The implications of the results in the context of the cosmic censorship conjecture are discussed.

Abstract:
We investigate the occurrence of naked singularities in the gravitational collapse of an inhomogeneous dust cloud in an expanding de Sitter background — a piece of Tolman–Bondi–de Sitter space–time. It turns out that the collapse proceed in the same way as in the Minkowski background, i.e., the strong curvature naked singularities form and thus violate the cosmic censorship conjecture. Our result unambiguously support the fact that the asymptotic flatness of space–time is not a necessary ingredient for the development of naked singularities.

Abstract:
Metrics representing black holes in General Relativity may exhibit naked singularities for certain values of their parameters. This is the case for super-extremal (J2 > M > 0) Kerr and super-extremal (|Q| > M > 0) Reissner-Nördstrom spacetimes, and also for the negative mass Schwarzschild spacetime. We review our recent work where we show that these nakedly singular spacetimes are unstable under linear gravitational perturbations, a result that supports the cosmic censorship conjecture, and also that the inner stationary region beyond the inner horizon of a Kerr black hole (J2 < M) is linearly unstable.

Abstract:
We study the five-dimensional spherical collapse of an inhomogeneous dust in the presence of a positive cosmological constant. The general interior solutions, in the closed form, of the Einstein field equations, i.e. the 5D Tolman–Bondi–de Sitter, is obtained which in turn is matched to the exterior 5D Schwarzschild–de Sitter. It turns out that the collapse proceeds in the same way as in the Minkowski background, i.e. the strong curvature naked singularities form and thus violate the cosmic censorship conjecture. A brief discussion on the causal structure singularities and horizons is also given.
