Recent study in [1] discovered that introducing a massive charged scalar field and requiring the Weak Gravity Conjecture (WGC) to hold can eliminate a class of Weak Cosmic Censorship Conjecture (WCCC) counterexamples in anti-de Sitter…
We test the weak cosmic censorship conjecture for magnetized Kerr-Newman spacetime via the method of injecting a test particle. Hence, we need to know how the black hole's parameters change when a test particle enters the horizon. This was…
A number of near-extremal conditions are utilized to simplify the equation of motion of the neutral scalar perturbations in generalized spherically symmetric black hole background into a differential equation with the P\"{o}schl-Teller…
Recently, several authors have studied the possibility of overspinning or overcharging an existing black hole to destroy its event horizon and make the central singularity naked. When all the effects are properly taken into account, any…
We construct odd-dimensional extremal charged black hole solutions with a twisted S^1 as an extra dimension on generalized Euclidean Taub-NUT spaces. There exists a null hypersurface where an expansion for an outgoing null geodesic…
We investigate extremal electrically charged black holes in Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton theory with a cosmological constant inspired by string theory. These solutions are not static, and a timelike singularity eventually appears which is not…
A series of corrections to general relativity have recently been applied to find the relationship between entropy and extremality-bound black holes. This relationship has been investigated for many black holes, such as charged AdS,…
In this study, we investigate the Weak Gravity Conjecture (WGC) in the context of quantum-corrected AdS-Reissner-Nordstrom (AdS-RN) black holes within Kiselev spacetime. Our focus is on photon spheres, which serve as markers for stable and…
Infalling matter may destroy a black hole and expose the naked singularity. Thus, Penrose proposed the weak cosmic censorship conjecture to avoid such a possibility. On the other hand, if the black hole is not destroyed by infalling matter,…
Recently, Li and Bambi proposed a hypothesis that the event horizon of a regular black hole can be destroyed because these objects have no gravitational singularity and therefore they are not protected by the weak cosmic censorship…
We explore the prospects for bounding the weak scale using the weak gravity conjecture (WGC), addressing the hierarchy problem by violating the expectations of effective field theory. Building on earlier work by Cheung and Remmen, we…
The weak cosmic censorship conjecture asserts that spacetime singularities that arise in gravitational collapse are always hidden inside of black holes, invisible to distant observers. This conjecture, put forward by Penrose more than four…
The charge of an electron is vastly larger than its mass. We found that black hole evolution under Hawking evaporation is very sensitive to the value of electron charge. If the electron charge is weakened by a mere one order of magnitude,…
Perturbative corrections to General Relativity alter the expressions for both the entropy of black holes and their extremality bounds. We prove a universal relation between the leading corrections to these quantities. The derivation is…
It has been shown recently that the strong cosmic censorship conjecture is violated by near-extremal Reissner-Nordstr\"om-de Sitter black holes. We investigate whether the introduction of a charged scalar field can rescue strong cosmic…
The fate of strong cosmic censorship is ultimately linked to the extendibility of perturbation across the Cauchy Horizon and known to be violated in the near extremal region of a charged de Sitter black hole. Similar violations can also be…
We explore possible extensions of the Weak Gravity Conjecture (WGC) to scalar field theories. To avoid charged black hole remnants, the WGC requires the existence of a particle with a mass $m < g q M_P$, with charge $q$ and U(1) gauge…
This paper argues that the weak cosmic censorship hypothesis implies that the Schwarzschild black hole has maximal entropy in all stationary black holes of fixing temperature, or equivalently, to store a same amount of information the…
It has been claimed that in a test of an asymptotically AdS version of weak cosmic censorship conjecture by attempting to overspin a BTZ black hole with test particles, one finds that it is not possible to spin-up the black hole past its…
A satisfactory formulation of the laws of physics entails that the future evolution of a physical system should be determined from appropriate initial conditions. The existence of Cauchy horizons in solutions of the Einstein field equations…
