Cosmic Censorship and the Dilaton
arXiv:hep-th/9307177 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.48.R5457
Abstract
We investigate extremal electrically charged black holes in Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton theory with a cosmological constant inspired by string theory. These solutions are not static, and a timelike singularity eventually appears which is not surrounded by an event horizon. This suggests that cosmic censorship may be violated in this theory.
