Abstract

In Roesch (Proof of a null penrose conjecture using a new quasi-local mass, arXiv:1609.02875 [gr-qc], 2016), the notion of Double Convexity for a foliation of a conical null hypersurface was introduced to give a proof, if satisfied, of the Null Penrose Inequality. Double Convexity constrains the geometry of a Marginally Outer Trapped Surface (MOTS), called a quasi-round MOTS. In the first part of this paper, for a class of strictly stable Weakly Isolated Horizons, we show the existence of a unique foliation by quasi-round MOTS. In the second part, we show that any subsequent space-time perturbation continues to admit a quasi-round MOTS. Finally, for perturbations of the quasi-round MOTS in Schwarzschild, we identify sufficient conditions on the asymptotics of any past-pointing null hypersurface that yields the Null Penrose Inequality.
