Weak cosmic censorship conjecture in the pure Lovelock gravity

Published 10 Aug 2020 in gr-qc, astro-ph.HE, and hep-th | (2008.04092v2)

Abstract: It is well known that a rotating black hole in four dimension could be overspun by linear order test particle accretion which however always gets overturned when non-linear perturbations are included. It turns out that in the Einstein gravity, repulsion due to rotation dominates over attraction due to mass in dimensions, $D>5$, and consequently black hole cannot be overspun even for linear order accretion. For the pure Lovelock rotating black hole, this dimensional threshold is $D>4N+1$ where $N$ is degree of single $N$th order term in the Lovelock polynomial in the action. Thus the pure Lovelock rotating black holes always obey the weak cosmic censorship conjecture (WCCC) in all dimensions greater than $4N+1$. Since overall gravity being repulsive beyond this dimensional threshold, how is rotating black hole then formed there?
