It is well known that a rotating black hole in four dimension could be
overspun by linear order test particle accretion which however always gets
overturned when non-linear perturbations are included. It turns out that in the
Einstein gravity, repulsion due to rotation dominates over attraction due to
mass in dimensions, $D>5$, and consequently black hole cannot be overspun even
for linear order accretion. For the pure Lovelock rotating black hole, this
dimensional threshold is $D>4N+1$ where $N$ is degree of single $N$th order
term in the Lovelock polynomial in the action. Thus the pure Lovelock rotating
black holes always obey the weak cosmic censorship conjecture (WCCC) in all
dimensions greater than $4N+1$. Since overall gravity being repulsive beyond
this dimensional threshold, how is rotating black hole then formed there?
