Also I think in a lecture Witten stated that one does invoke cosmic censorship, but I think he made a mistake in the lecture or answered a question too hastily. On page 66 of his lecture notes on causality in GR arxiv.org/pdf/1901.03928.pdf, he states that one can prove the black hole area theorem without using cosmic censorship. | |
| Oct 13, 2020 at 19:53 | comment | added | Carlo Beenakker | the proofs of Hawking's area theorem that I am aware of do not appear to invoke the cosmic censorship hypothesis, see for example arxiv.org/abs/gr-qc/0001003 and arxiv.org/abs/1711.06480 | |
