Abstract
We prove that the only asymptotically flat spacetimes with a suitably regular event horizon, in a generalised Majumdar–Papapetrou class of solutions to higher-dimensional Einstein–Maxwell theory, are the standard multi-black holes. The proof involves a careful analysis of the near-horizon geometry and an extension of the positive mass theorem to Riemannian manifolds with conical singularities. This completes the classification of asymptotically flat, static, extreme black hole solutions in this theory.
