Area - Angular momentum inequality for axisymmetric black holes

arXiv:1102.5215 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.107.051101

Abstract

We prove the local inequality , where and are the area and angular momentum of any axially symmetric closed stable minimal surface in an axially symmetric maximal initial data. From this theorem it is proved that the inequality is satisfied for any surface on complete asymptotically flat maximal axisymmetric data. In particular it holds for marginal or event horizons of black holes.
