Semi-Classical Analysis of Strong Cosmic Censorship - Lecture

Erwin Schrödinger International Institute for Mathematics and Physics (ESI) via YouTube

Overview

Explore a comprehensive lecture on the semi-classical analysis of strong cosmic censorship delivered by Stefan Hollands at the Erwin Schrödinger International Institute for Mathematics and Physics. Delve into the intricacies of classical General Relativity, examining how the values of fields on spacetime are determined by initial data within their domain of dependence. Investigate the concept of Cauchy horizons in spacetimes like Reissner-Nordström and Reissner-Nordström-deSitter, and understand the strong cosmic censorship conjecture. Learn about recent findings challenging this conjecture in certain RNdS spacetimes and discover how quantum theory potentially resolves these issues. Examine the behavior of quantum scalar fields in RNdS spacetime and their impact on the expected stress-tensor near the Cauchy horizon. Gain insights into the generalization of these findings to other spacetimes with Killing horizon Cauchy horizons. Explore topics such as ancient beliefs, singularities, black holes, inner horizons, cosmic censorship, quantum effects, virtual particles, scattering problems, and the behavior of massive and charged scalar fields in this context.
