Near-extremal Kerr–de Sitter failure of Lloc2L^2_{\rm loc} strong cosmic censorship

Let (M,g)(\mathcal{M},g) be the maximal Cauchy development of sufficiently small perturbations of Kerr–de Sitter data with nn black-hole regions, initial topology S1×S2\mathbb{S}^1\times\mathbb{S}^2, and parameters sufficiently close to extremality. Let (M~,g~)(\widetilde{\mathcal{M}},\widetilde{g}) be extensions as in the preceding conjecture. Near-extremal Kerr–de Sitter conjecture. One can choose the extensions so that g~\widetilde{g} has locally square-integrable Christoffel symbols and the extensions satisfy the Einstein equations in a generalized sense. In particular, the formulation of strong cosmic censorship requiring inextendibility as a metric with Lloc2L^2_{\rm loc} Christoffel symbols does not hold for positive cosmological constant. This predicts a low-regularity extension beyond the Cauchy horizon in the near-extremal vacuum case and remains open.
