In this note we study the topology of 3-dimensional initial data sets with horizons of a sort associated with asymptotically locally anti-de Sitter spacetimes. We show that, within this class, those initial data sets that contain no (immersed) marginally outer trapped surfaces in their interior must have simple topology: they are a product of a surface and an interval, or a mild variation thereof, depending on the connectedness of the horizon and on its genus relative to that of the end. The…

We solve the Plateau problem for marginally outer trapped surfaces in general Cauchy data sets. We employ the Perron method and tools from geometric measure theory to force and control a blow-up of
