Black hole uniqueness theorem in GR [Israel (1967); Carter (1971); Hawking (1973); Robinson (1975)] The only stationary vacuum black hole solution is the Kerr solution of mass M and angular momentum J Black holes have no hair.

Going beyond stationarity and axisymmetry A fully general theory of radiating black holes is called for However, even the classical notion of surface gravity for a dynamical black hole is problematic [Nielsen & Yoon (2008)] Main difficulty: lack of a horizon Killing field, a Killing field tangent to the null geodesic generators of the event horizon Objective: explore the mechanics and thermodynamics of a dynamical and interacting black hole Main tool: black hole perturbation theory

Zeroth law for a black hole with moon Because of helical symmetry and corotation, the expansion and shear of the perturbed future event horizon H vanish Rigidity theorems then imply that H is a Killing horizon [Hawking (1972); Chruściel (1997); Friedrich et al. (1999); etc] The horizon-generating Killing field must be of the form k a pλq t a ` p ω H ` λ Dω H q φ a ` Opλ 2 q The surface gravity κ is defined in the usual manner as κ 2 1 2 p a k b a k b q H Since κ const. over any Killing horizon [Bardeen et al.
