The Instability of Naked Singularities in the Gravitational Collapse of a Scalar Field
The Instability of Naked Singularities in the Gravitational Collapse of a Scalar Field
One of the fundamental unanswered questions in the general theory of relativity is whether \naked singularities, that is singular events which are visible from inflnity, may form with positive probability in the process of gravitational collapse. The conjecture that the answer to this question is in the negative has been …
