Generalized Strong Curvature Singularities and Weak Cosmic Censorship in Cosmological Space–times
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper is a further development of the approach to weak cosmic censorship proposed by the authors in Ref. [5]. We state and prove a modified version of that work’s main result under significantly relaxed assumptions on the asymptotic structure of space–time. The result, which imposes strong constraints on the occurrence of naked singularities of the strong curvature type, is in particular applicable to physically realistic cosmological models.

Naked strong curvature singularities in Szekeres space - times Pankaj
We investigate the occurrence and nature of naked singularities in the Szekeres space-times. These space-times represent irrotational dust. They do not have any Killing vectors and they are generalisations of the Tolman-Bondi-Lemâıtre space-times. It is shown that in these space-times there exist naked singularities that satisfy both the limiting focusing condition and the strong limiting focus...

A desirable property of any space-time used to model a physically plausible scenario is that the evolution of the Einstein’s equations is well posed i.e. the initial value problem has a unique solution. Space-times whose metrics are at least C, which guarantees the existence of unique geodesics, fall within the context of the Cosmic Censorship Hypothesis of Penrose (1979). The hypothesis states...
متن کاملStrong Cosmic Censorship and Causality Violation
We investigate the instability of the Cauchy horizon caused by causality violation in the compact vacuum universe with the topology B × S × R, which Moncrief and Isenberg considered. We show that if the occurrence of curvature singularities are restricted to the boundary of causality violating region, the whole segments of the boundary become curvature singularities. This implies that the stron...

A desirable property of any space-time used to model a physically plausible scenario is that the evolution of the Einstein’s equations is well posed; that is the initial value problem admits a unique solution. Space-times whose metrics are at least C2−, which guarantees the existence of unique geodesics, fall within the context of the Cosmic Censorship Hypothesis of Penrose (1979). This hypothe...
