Towards a classification of static electrovacuum spacetimes containing an asymptotically flat spacelike hypersurface with compact interior

چکیده
We show that static electrovacuum black hole spacetimes containing an asymptotically flat spacelike hypersurface with compact interior and with both degenerate and non-degenerate components of the event horizon do not exist, under the supplementary hypothesis that all degenerate components of the event horizon have charges of the same sign. This extends previous uniqueness theorems of Simon and Masood-ul-Alam (where only non-degenerate horizons were allowed) and Heusler (where only degenerate horizons were allowed).

The classification of static electro–vacuum space–times containing an asymptotically flat spacelike hypersurface with compact interior
We show that static electro–vacuum black hole space–times containing an asymptotically flat spacelike hypersurface with compact interior and with both degenerate and non–degenerate components of the event horizon do not exist. This is done by a careful study of the near-horizon geometry of degenerate horizons, which allows us to eliminate the last restriction of the static electro-vacuum no-hai...
متن کاملThe classification of static vacuum space–times containing an asymptotically flat spacelike hypersurface with compact interior
We prove non–existence of static, vacuum, appropriately regular, asymptotically flat black hole space–times with degenerate (not necessarily connected) components of the event horizon. This finishes the classification of static, vacuum, asymptotically flat domains of outer communication in an appropriate class of space–times, showing that the domains of outer communication of the Schwarzschild ...
متن کاملExistence of Constant Mean Curvature Hypersurfaces in Asymptotically Flat Spacetimes
The problem of existence of spacelike hypersurfaces with constant mean curvature in asymptotically flat spacetimes is considered for a class of asymptotically Schwarzschild spacetimes satisfying an interior condition. Using a barrier construction, a proof is given of the existence of complete hypersurfaces with constant mean cuvature which intersect null infinity in a regular cut. 1991 Mathemat...
متن کاملFlat Conformal Structures and the Classification of De Sitter Manifolds
Given a compact n-manifold Σ with a flat conformal structure, there is a canonical procedure for constructing an associated (n + 1)-dimensional de Sitter spacetime homeomorphic to Σ× (0,∞); we call these standard de Sitter spacetimes. Our main theorem is a classification of compact de Sitter manifolds; it asserts that every de Sitter spacetime which is a small regular neighborhood of a closed s...
متن کاملConstant mean curvature foliations in cosmological spacetimes
Foliations by constant mean curvature hypersurfaces provide a possibility of defining a preferred time coordinate in general relativity. In the following various conjectures are made about the existence of foliations of this kind in spacetimes satisfying the strong energy condition and possessing compact Cauchy hypersurfaces. Recent progress on proving these conjectures under supplementary assu...
