Cauchy horizon stability in self-similar collapse: Scalar radiation
Open accessAbstract
The stability of the Cauchy horizon in spherically symmetric self-similar collapse is studied by determining the flux of scalar radiation impinging on the horizon.This flux is found to be finite.

All self-similar solutions with naked singularities feature a Cauchy horizon, whose classical stability depends on specific energy conditions being satisfied.
“all self-similar solutions with naked singularities feature a Cauchy horizon, whose classical stability depends on specific energy conditions being satisfied [181].”
From Unveiling horizons in quantum critical collapse (2026) · cites this paper as [181]
Section II identifies a Cauchy horizon for the naked-singularity cases considered. The Conclusions report stability under scalar radiation when the dominant energy condition and specified differentiability conditions hold. The paper studies spherically symmetric self-similar collapse, however, and does not establish either assertion for all self-similar solutions or classical stability against perturbations generally.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
