Abstract

Given a complete, 3-dimensional, asymptotically flat initial data set for the Einstein-Maxwell equations with vanishing magnetic field, we show that there exists a small universal constant $\mathcal{C}$ such that $m\geq\mathcal{C}(\sqrt{\mathcal{A}/(16\pi)}+\mathcal{Q}^2\sqrt{\pi/\mathcal{A}}\,)$. An analogous statement holds for asymptotically hyperboloidal initial data sets with the ADM mass replaced by hyperbolic energy. Under the additional assumption of axisymmetry, the inequality may be further strengthened to include angular momentum. These results extend the Penrose-type inequalities recently obtained by Allen-Bryden-Kazaras-Khuri to the charged setting.
