Diophantine approximation as Cosmic Censor for Kerr–AdS black holes

The purpose of this paper is to show an unexpected connection between Diophantine approximation and the behavior of waves on black hole interiors with negative cosmological constant $$\Lambda <0$$ Λ < 0 and explore the consequences of this for the Strong Cosmic Censorship conjecture in general relativity. We study linear scalar perturbations $$\psi $$ ψ of Kerr–AdS solving $$\Box _g\psi -\frac{2}{3}\Lambda \psi =0$$ □ g ψ - 2 3 Λ ψ = 0 with reflecting boundary conditions imposed at infinity. Understanding the behavior of $$\psi $$ ψ at the Cauchy horizon corresponds to a linear analog of the problem of Strong Cosmic Censorship. Our main result shows that if the dimensionless black hole parameters mass $${\mathfrak {m}} = M \sqrt{-\Lambda }$$ m = M - Λ and angular momentum $${\mathfrak {a}} = a \sqrt{-\Lambda }$$ a = a - Λ satisfy a certain non-Diophantine condition, then perturbations $$\psi $$ ψ arising from generic smooth initial data blow up $$|\psi |\rightarrow +\infty $$ | ψ | → + ∞ at the Cauchy horizon. The proof crucially relies on a novel resonance phenomenon between stable trapping on the black hole exterior and the poles of the interior scattering operator that gives rise to a small divisors problem. Our result is in stark contrast to the result on Reissner–Nordström–AdS (Kehle in Commun Math Phys 376(1):145–200, 2020) as well as to previous work on the analogous problem for $$\Lambda \ge 0$$ Λ ≥ 0 —in both cases such linear scalar perturbations were shown to remain bounded. As a result of the non-Diophantine condition, the set of parameters $${\mathfrak {m}}, {\mathfrak {a}}$$ m , a for which we show blow-up forms a Baire-generic but Lebesgue-exceptional subset of all parameters below the Hawking–Reall bound. On the other hand, we conjecture that for a set of parameters $${\mathfrak {m}}, {\mathfrak {a}} $$ m , a which is Baire-exceptional but Lebesgue-generic, all linear scalar perturbations remain bounded at the Cauchy horizon $$|\psi |\le C$$ | ψ | ≤ C . This suggests that the validity of the $$C^0$$ C 0 -formulation of Strong Cosmic Censorship for $$\Lambda <0$$ Λ < 0 may change in a spectacular way according to the notion of genericity imposed.

Strong cosmic censorship in near-extremal Kerr-Sen-de Sitter spacetime

In this work, we first calculate equations of motion for particles in the Kerr-Sen-de Sitter black hole spacetime. Then, in the eikonal regime, we analytically obtain the quasi-normal resonant modes of massless neutral scalar field perturbation and find its imaginary part to be characterized by the surface gravity of a near-extremal Kerr-Sen-de Sitter black hole with the Cauchy horizon approaching the event horizon. We further show that the Penrose strong cosmic censorship conjecture is thus respected in this spacetime with dilaton scalar field and axion pseudoscalar field.

What’s inside a hairy black hole in massive gravity?

In the context of massive gravity theories, we study holographic flows driven by a relevant scalar operator and interpolating between a UV 3-dimensional CFT and a trans-IR Kasner universe. For a large class of scalar potentials, the Cauchy horizon never forms in presence of a non-trivial scalar hair, although, in absence of it, the black hole solution has an inner horizon due to the finite graviton mass. We show that the instability of the Cauchy horizon triggered by the scalar field is associated to a rapid collapse of the Einstein-Rosen bridge. The corresponding flows run smoothly through the event horizon and at late times end in a spacelike singularity at which the asymptotic geometry takes a general Kasner form dominated by the scalar hair kinetic term. Interestingly, we discover deviations from the simple Kasner universe whenever the potential terms become larger than the kinetic one. Finally, we study the effects of the scalar deformation and the graviton mass on the Kasner singularity exponents and show the relationship between the Kasner exponents and the entanglement and butterfly velocities probing the black hole dynamics. Differently from the holographic superconductor case, we can prove explicitly that Josephson oscillations in the interior of the BH are absent.

Computing the temporal intervals by making a Throne-Morris wormhole from a Kerr black hole in the context of f(R,T) gravity

In the paper we will proceed towards taking the larger root of and make it equal to zero to remove the event horizon of a Kerr black hole (BH) in Boyer-Lindquist coordinates with a prevalent ring type singularity that can be smoothen by a tunneling approach of a spherinder thereby proceeding safely towards the Cauchy horizon with the deduced intervals computed in detail for the time travel in the Throne-Morris wormhole (WH) approach under gravity without the presence of any exotic matter at the WH mouth thereby preserving the asymptotically solutions of flaring out conditions and mouth opening during the course of the journey through the Einstein-Rosen bridge. An approach has been organized in the paper in which not only time travel is possible without exotic matter but also time travel is flexible to past and future in the Einstein’s universe by eliminating all sorts of paradoxes by spatial sheath through 2D approach of temporal dimensions.

Diving inside a hairy black hole

We investigate the interior of the Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet charged black-hole with scalar hair. We find a variety of dynamical epochs, with the particular important feature that the Cauchy horizon is not present. This makes the violation of the no-hair theorem a possible tool to understand how might the strong cosmic censorship conjecture work.

No inner-horizon theorem for black holes with charged scalar hairs

We establish a no inner-horizon theorem for black holes with charged scalar hairs. Considering a general gravitational theory with a charged scalar field, we prove that there exists no inner Cauchy horizon for both spherical and planar black holes with non-trivial scalar hair. The hairy black holes approach to a spacelike singularity at late interior time. This result is independent of the form of scalar potentials as well as the asymptotic boundary of spacetimes. We prove that the geometry near the singularity takes a universal Kasner form when the kinetic term of the scalar hair dominates, while novel behaviors different from the Kasner form are uncovered when the scalar potential become important to the background. For the hyperbolic horizon case, we show that hairy black hole can only has at most one inner horizon, and a concrete example with an inner horizon is presented. All these features are also valid for the Einstein gravity coupled with neutral scalars.

Solutions of Kerr Black Holes subject to Naked Singularity and Wormholes

The existence of the “Naked Singularity" has been shown taking the advantage of the Ring Singularity of the Kerr Black Hole and thereby making the way to manipulate the mathematics by taking the larger root of Δ as zero and thereby vanishing the ergosphere and event horizon making the way for the naked ring singularity which can be easily connected via a cylindrical wormhole and as ‘a wormhole is a black hole without an event horizon’ therefore, this cylindrical connection paved the way for the Einstein-Rosen Bridge allowing particles or null rays to travel from one universe to another ending up in a future directed Cauchy horizon while changing constantly from spatial to temporal and again spatial paving the entrance to another Kerr Black hole (which would act as a white hole) in the other universes.
