Abstract: We consider four-dimensional spacetimes $(M,mathbfg)$ which obey the Einstein equations $mathbfG=mathbfT$, and admit a global spacelike $G_1=mathbbR$ 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 $G_1$-symmetric spacetimes. We argue that this adds further evidence towards the validity of the hoop conjecture, and signals possible violations of strong cosmic censorship.
