The weak cosmic censorship conjecture in the near-extremal BTZ black hole has been tested by the test particles and fields. It was claimed that this black hole could be overspun. In this paper, we review the thermodynamics and weak cosmic…

We clarify a number of issues that arise when extending the analysis of Strong Cosmic Censorship (SCC) to perturbations of highly charged Reissner-Nordstr\"{o}m de Sitter (RNdS) spacetimes. The linear stability of the Cauchy horizon can be…

The weak cosmic censorship conjecture (wCCC) might not be as robust as one would expect. We present a potential counterexample to the wCCC in a rotating three-dimensional anti-de Sitter (AdS$_3$) spacetime. We extend the parameter range of…

Weak cosmic censorship conjecture (WCCC) is a basic principle that guarantees the predictability of spacetime and should be valid in any classical theories. One critical scientific question is whether the WCCC can serve as a constraint to…
