A local rigidity theorem for minimal two-spheres in an electrovacuum spacetime

Differential Geometry 2022-04-01 v1

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to prove that, under suitable constrains on the electrovacuum spacetime MM, if ΣM\Sigma\subset M is an embedded strictly stable minimal two-sphere which locally maximizes the charged Hawking mass, then there exist a neighborhood of it in MM isometric to the Reissner-Nordstr\"om-de Sitter space. At the same time, motived by \cite{Brendle}, we will deduce an estimate for area of a two-sphere which is locally area minimizing in an electrovacuum spacetime. Moreover, if the equality holds, then there exist a neighborhood of it in MM isometric to the charged Nariai space.
