Remarks on stationary vacuum black holes

Abstract

We finish the proof of the no-hair theorem for stationary, analytic, connected, suitably regular, four dimensional vacuum black holes. We show how to define the surface gravity and the angular velocity of horizons without assuming analyticity. We point out that, under the usual regularity conditions, vacuum near-horizon geometries are Kerrian without assuming analyticity.
