On non-existence of static vacuum black holes with degenerate components of the event horizon

Abstract

We present a simple proof of the non-existence of degenerate components of the event horizon in static, vacuum, regular, four-dimensional black hole spacetimes. We discuss the generalisation to higher dimensions and the inclusion of a cosmological constant.
