T shall be a complete type, (possibly cv-qualified) void, or an array of unknown bound. Otherwise, the behavior is undefined.
If an instantiation of a template above depends, directly or indirectly, on an incomplete type, and that instantiation could yield a different result if that type were hypothetically completed, the behavior is undefined.
The behavior of a program that adds specializations for any of the templates described on this page is undefined.

In many implementations, std::is_nothrow_default_constructible also checks if the destructor throws because it is effectively noexcept(T()). Same applies to std::is_trivially_default_constructible, which, in these implementations, also requires that the destructor is trivial: GCC bug 51452, LWG issue 2116.
std::is_default_constructible<T> does not test that T x; would compile; it attempts direct-initialization with an empty argument list (see std::is_constructible). Thus, std::is_default_constructible_v<const int> and std::is_default_constructible_v<const int[10]> are true.
