A Penrose-Like Inequality for General Initial Data Sets
نویسندگان
چکیده
We establish a Penrose-Like Inequality for general (not necessarily time symmetric) initial data sets of the Einstein equations which satisfy the dominant energy condition. More precisely, it is shown that the ADM energy is bounded below by an expression which is proportional to the square root of the area of the outermost future (or past) apparent horizon.

On the Penrose inequality for charged black holes
Bray and Khuri (2011 Asian J. Math. 15 557–610; 2010 Discrete Continuous Dyn. Syst. A 27 741766) outlined an approach to prove the Penrose inequality for general initial data sets of the Einstein equations. In this paper we extend this approach so that it may be applied to a charged version of the Penrose inequality. Moreover, assuming that the initial data are time-symmetric, we prove the rigi...
متن کاملA Penrose-like inequality with charge
We establish a Penrose-like inequality for general (not necessarily timesymmetric) initial data sets of the Einstein–Maxwell equations, which satisfy the dominant energy condition. More precisely, it is shown that the ADM energy is bounded below by an expression which is proportional to the sum of the square root of the area of the outermost future (or past) apparent horizon and the square of t...
متن کاملThe Conformal Flow of Metrics and the General Penrose Inequality
In this note we show how to adapt Bray’s conformal flow of metrics, so that it may be applied to the Penrose inequality for general initial data sets of the Einstein equations. This involves coupling the conformal flow with the generalized Jang equation.
متن کاملA Jang Equation Approach to the Penrose Inequality
We introduce a generalized version of the Jang equation, designed for the general case of the Penrose Inequality in the setting of an asymptotically flat space-like hypersurface of a spacetime satisfying the dominant energy condition. The appropriate existence and regularity results are established in the special case of spherically symmetric Cauchy data, and are applied to give a new proof of ...
متن کاملOn the Penrose Inequality
We summarize results on the Penrose inequality bounding the ADM-mass or the Bondi mass in terms of the area of an outermost apparent horizon for asymptotically flat initial data of Einstein’s equations. We first recall the proof, due to Geroch and to Jang and Wald, of monotonicity of the Geroch-Hawking mass under a smooth inverse mean curvature flow for data with non-negative Ricci scalar, whic...
