Gravitational instabilities and censorship of large scalar field excursions
Abstract Large, localized variations of light scalar fields tend to collapse into black holes, dynamically “censoring” distant points in field space. We show that in some cases, large scalar excursions in asymptotically flat spacetimes can be UV-completed by smooth Kaluza-Klein bubble geometries, ap...
