Understand

We present a plausible counterexample to cosmic censorship in four dimensional Einstein-Maxwell theory with asymptotically anti-de Sitter boundary conditions.

Smooth initial data evolves to a region of arbitrarily large curvature that is visible to distant observers.
Our example is based on a holographic model of an electrically charged, localised defect which was previously studied at zero temperature.
We partially extend those results to nonzero temperatures.
