Are naked singularites forbidden by the second law of thermodynamics?
Sukratu Barve, T. P. Singh
Abstract
By now, many examples of naked singularities in classical general relativity are known. It may however be that a physical principle over and above the general theory prevents the occurrence of such singularities in nature. Assuming the validity of the Weyl curvature hypothesis, we propose that naked singularities are forbidden by the second law of thermodynamics.
