Mass-Angular Momentum Inequality For Black Ring Spacetimes

The inequality $m^3\geq \frac{27π}{4} |\mathcal{J}_{2}||\mathcal{J}_{1}-\mathcal{J}_{2}|$ relating total mass and angular momenta, is established for (possibly dynamical) spacetimes admitting black holes of ring ($S^1\times S^2$) topology. This inequality is shown to be sharp in the sense that it is saturated precisely for the extreme Pomeransky-Sen'kov black ring solutions. The physical significance of this inequality and its relation to new evidence of black ring instability, as well as the standard picture of gravitational collapse, are discussed.

Relating Mass to Angular Momentum and Charge in 5-Dimensional Minimal Supergravity

We prove a mass-angular momentum-charge inequality for a broad class of maximal, asymptotically flat, bi-axisymmetric initial data within the context of five-dimensional minimal supergravity. We further show that the charged Myers-Perry black hole initial data are the unique minimizers. In addition, we establish a rigidity statement for the relevant BPS bound, and give a variational characterization of BMPV black holes.

Proof of the Mass-Angular Momentum Inequality for Bi-Axisymmetric Black Holes With Spherical Topology

We show that extreme Myers-Perry initial data realize the unique absolute minimum of the total mass in a physically relevant (Brill) class of maximal, asymptotically flat, bi-axisymmetric initial data for the Einstein equations with fixed angular momenta. As a consequence, we prove the relevant mass-angular momentum inequality in this setting for 5-dimensional spacetimes. That is, all data in this class satisfy the inequality $m^3\geq \frac{27π}{32}\left(|\mathcal{J}_1|+|\mathcal{J}_2|\right)^2$, where $m$ and $\mathcal{J}_i$, $i=1,2$ are the total mass and angular momenta of the spacetime. Moreover, equality holds if and only if the initial data set is isometric to the canonical slice of an extreme Myers-Perry black hole.

Small deformations of extreme five dimensional Myers-Perry black hole initial data

In this note we demonstrate the existence of a one-parameter family of initial data for the vacuum Einstein equations in five dimensions representing small deformations of the extreme Myers-Perry black hole. This initial data set has `$t-ϕ^i$' symmetry and preserves the angular momenta and horizon geometry of the extreme solution. Our proof is based upon an earlier result of Dain and Gabach-Clement concerning the existence of $U(1)$-invariant initial data sets which preserve the geometry of extreme Kerr (at least for short times)

Remarks on mass and angular momenta for $U(1)^2$-invariant initial data

We extend Brill's positive mass theorem to a large class of asymptotically flat, maximal, $U(1)^2$-invariant initial data sets on simply connected four dimensional manifolds $Σ$. Moreover, we extend the local mass angular momenta inequality result Ref [1] for $U(1)^2$ invariant black holes to the case with nonzero stress energy tensor with positive matter density and energy-momentum current invariant under the above symmetries.

Proof of the local mass-angular momenta inequality for $U(1)^2$ invariant black holes

We consider initial data for extreme vacuum asymptotically flat black holes with $\mathbb{R} \times U(1)^2$ symmetry. Such geometries are critical points of a mass functional defined for a wide class of asymptotically flat, `$(t-ϕ^i)$' symmetric maximal initial data for the vacuum Einstein equations. We prove that the above extreme geometries are local minima of mass amongst nearby initial data (with the same interval structure) with fixed angular momenta. Thus the ADM mass of nearby data $m\geq f(J_1,J_2)$ for some function $f$ depending on the interval structure. The proof requires that the initial data of the critical points satisfy certain conditions that are satisfied by the extreme Myers-Perry and extreme black ring data.

On a mass functional for initial data in 4+1 dimensional spacetime

We consider a broad class of asymptotically flat, maximal initial data sets satisfying the vacuum constraint equations, admitting two commuting rotational symmetries. We construct a mass functional for `$t-ϕ^i$' symmetric data which evaluates to the ADM mass. We then show that $\mathbb{R} \times U(1)^2$-invariant solutions of the vacuum Einstein equations are critical points of this functional amongst this class of data. We demonstrate positivity of this functional for a class of rod structures which include the Myers-Perry initial data. The construction is a natural extension of Dain's mass functional to $D=5$, although several new features arise.

Notes on maximal slices of five-dimensional black holes

We consider maximal slices of the Myers-Perry black hole, the doubly spinning black ring, and the Black Saturn solution. These slices are complete, asymptotically flat Riemannian manifolds with inner boundaries corresponding to black hole horizons. Although these spaces are simply connected as a consequence of topological censorship, they have non-trivial topology. In this note we investigate the question of whether the topology of spatial sections of the horizon uniquely determines the topology of the maximal slices. We show that the horizon determines the homological invariants of the slice under certain conditions. The homological analysis is extended to black holes for which explicit geometries are not yet known. We believe that these results could provide insights in the context of proving existence of deformations of this initial data. For the topological slices of the doubly spinning black ring and the Black Saturn we compute the homotopy groups up to dimension 3 and show that their 4-dimensional homotopy group is not trivial.
