Area-angular momentum inequality for multiple black holes
Area-angular momentum inequality for multiple black holes
Let be a simply connected, axially symmetric, maximal initial data set with multiple ends, one asymptotically flat and the others , either asymptotically flat or asymptotically cylindrical. If the dominant energy condition is satisfied, and , then let be the sum of the angular momenta and let be the sum of the areas of the stable minimal surfaces enclosing each end , . Multiple-black-hole area-angular momentum conjecture. One should have
Moreover, equality should hold if and only if the initial data arise from an extreme Kerr spacetime. The inequality extends the corresponding single-black-hole area-angular momentum inequality to multiple black holes; unlike the charged case, additivity of area and subadditivity of total angular momentum support the proposed bound. The statement remains open in the source.
