Strong Cosmic Censorship in higher-dimensional Reissner-Nordström-de Sitter spacetime

Abstract : It was recently shown that Strong Cosmic Censorship might be violated for near-extremally-charged black holes in 4-dimensional de Sitter space under scalar perturbations. Here, we extend the study of neutral massless scalar perturbations in higher dimensions and discuss the dimensional influence on the validity of Strong Cosmic Censorship hypothesis. By giving an elaborate description of neutral massless scalar perturbations of Reissner-Nordström-de Sitter black holes in d = 4, 5 and 6 dimensions we conclude that Strong Cosmic Censorship is violated near extremality
