Complexity as a holographic probe of strong cosmic censorship

Based on reasonable assumptions, we propose a new expression for Lloyd's bound, which confines the complexity growth of charged black holes. We then revisit holographic complexity for charged black branes in the presence of a finite cutoff. Using the proposed Lloyd's bound we find a relation between the UV and the behind the horizon cutoff. This is found to be consistent with the factorization of the partition function at leading order in large N. We argue that the result may be thought of as a holographic realization of strong cosmic censorship.

In this paper, a new expression for Lloyd's bound is proposed to confine the complexity growth of charged black holes. The study revisits holographic complexity for charged black branes in the presence of a finite cutoff, finding a relation between the UV and behind the horizon cutoff which is consistent with factorization of the partition function at leading order in large N. The result is argued to be a holographic realization of strong cosmic censorship.
