Abstract
In this paper a lower bound for the ADM mass is given in terms of the angular momenta and charges of black holes present in axisymmetric initial data sets for the Einstein-Maxwell equations. This generalizes the mass-angular momentum-charge inequality obtained by Chrusciel and Costa to the case of multiple black holes. We also weaken the hypotheses used in the proof of this result for single black holes, and establish the associated rigidity statement.
