Abstract: We consider four-dimensional spacetimes (M,mathbfg) which obey the Einstein equations mathbfG=mathbfT, and admit a global spacelike G1=mathbbR isometry group. By means of dimensional reduction and local analyis on the reduced (2+1) spacetime, we obtain a sufficient condition on mathbfT which guarantees that (M,mathbfg) cannot contain apparent horizons. Given any (3+1) spacetime with spacelike translational isometry, the no-horizon condition can be readily tested without the need for dimensional reduction. This provides thus a useful and encompassing apparent horizon test for G1-symmetric spacetimes. We argue that this adds further evidence towards the validity of the hoop conjecture, and signals possible violations of strong cosmic censorship.
