If you have a question about this talk, please contact Dejan Gajic.

We will start by recalling the weak cosmic censorship conjecture. Then we will review Christodoulou’s construction of naked singularities for the spherically symmetric Einstein-scalar field system. Finally, we will discuss joint work with Igor Rodnianski which constructs spacetimes corresponding to the exterior region of a naked singularity for the Einstein vacuum equations
