We investigate whether the Strong Cosmic Censorship (SCC) Conjecture can be reinstated in Reissner-Nordstr\"om-de Sitter (RNdS) black holes by introducing non-minimal couplings between the electromagnetic and scalar fields in…

Deterministic nature of general relativity is ensured by the strong cosmic censorship conjecture, which asserts that spacetime cannot be extended beyond Cauchy horizon with square integrable connection. Although this conjecture holds true…

We study the collapse of spheroidal configurations of collisionless particles in full general relativity. This setup was originally considered by Shapiro and Teukolsky (1991), where it was found that prolate configurations with a…

We correlate the weak gravity conjecture (WGC), the KSS conjecture with chemical potential at extremality and the central charges by going through a particular example in five dimensional AdS spacetime with two unknown coefficients $c_1,…

In this paper, we explore the Weak Gravity Conjecture (WGC) within the context of photon spheres in charged black holes, framed by Perfect Fluid in Rastall Theory. We aim to validate the WGC by identifying the extremality states of these…

We investigate the laws of thermodynamics and weak cosmic censorship conjecture in the normal and extended phase space of a Kerr-AdS black hole by analyzing the energy-momentum relation of the absorbed fermion dropping into the horizon. In…

Spacetime singularities, in the sense that curvature invariants are infinite at some point or region, are thought to be impossible to observe, and must be hidden within an event horizon. This conjecture is called Cosmic Censorship (CC), and…

In recent literature, it has been argued that a mild form of the Weak Gravity Conjecture (WGC) is satisfied by wide classes of effective field theories in which higher-derivative corrections can be shown to shift the charge-to-mass ratios…

We study the generalization of the gadenken experiment of overcharging an extremal black hole proposed by Wald in the context of a multi black hole solution. In particular, we attempt to overcharge a system of two extremal black holes via…

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…

We investigate the interior of the Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet charged black-hole with scalar hair. We find a variety of dynamical epochs, with the particular important feature that the Cauchy horizon is not present. This makes the violation of…

Christodoulou's formulation of Strong Cosmic Censorship (SCC) holds true for Kerr-de Sitter black holes. On the other hand, Reissner-Nordstr\"om-de Sitter black holes violate SCC. We do a detailed scan of the parameter space of…

It was recently shown that Strong Cosmic Censorship might be violated for near-extremally-charged black holes in 4-dimensional de Sitter space under scalar perturbations. Here, we extend the study of neutral massless scalar perturbations in…
