Proof of the weak cosmic censorship conjecture for several extremal black holes

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2020-09-22 v2

Abstract

We show explicitly, for different types of extremal black holes, that test fields satisfying the null energy condition at the event horizon cannot violate the weak cosmic censorship conjecture. This is done by checking, in each case, that the hypotheses for the general theorem in [7] are satisfied.
