Strong Cosmic Censorship conjecture for spherically symmetric collapse
Strong Cosmic Censorship conjecture for spherically symmetric collapse
Let the Einstein–Maxwell-charged-scalar-field system be given by equations
, and consider generic, one-ended, asymptotically flat, complete spherically symmetric initial data. Its Maximal Globally Hyperbolic Development is the maximal globally hyperbolic spacetime development of these initial data. Strong Cosmic Censorship conjecture. The Maximal Globally Hyperbolic Development is -future-inextendible. This is a formulation of Strong Cosmic Censorship in spherical symmetry: no extension to the future should exist for generic collapse data. The conjecture remains open.
