Consider all spherically symmetric asymptotically flat initial data for the Einstein-Vlasov system. **Horizon-condition conjecture.** For all spherically symmetric asymptotically flat initial data,

is satisfied on H+\mathcal{H}^+. This is stated as a stronger conjecture implying the absence of future Cauchy horizons; the authors note that proving it only for generic initial data would be sufficient for applications to strong cosmic censorship.
