Bounds on area and charge for marginally trapped surfaces with cosmological constant
We sharpen the known inequalities and between the area and the electric charge of a stable marginally
outer trapped surface (MOTS) of genus g in the presence of a cosmological
constant . In particular, instead of requiring stability we include
the principal eigenvalue of the stability operator. For we obtain a lower and an upper bound for in terms of as well as the upper bound for the charge, which reduces to in the stable case . For
there remains only a lower bound on . In the spherically symmetric, static,
stable case one of the area inequalities is saturated iff the surface gravity
vanishes. We also discuss implications of our inequalities for "jumps" and
mergers of charged MOTS.Comment: minor corrections to previous version and to published versio
