 Solution

Suppose the closed trapped surface $T$ were not wholly in the black hole. The stated consequence of strong asymptotic predictability then supplies a point $p\in {\dot{J}}^{+}(T)\cap {\mathcal{I}}^{+}$ lying on a future null generator $\gamma$ orthogonal to $T$, with no point conjugate to $T$ before $p$. Both future null expansions at $T$ are negative. The null focusing theorem therefore forces the expansion along $\gamma$ to diverge after finite affine parameter, producing a conjugate point before the generator reaches future null infinity. A null geodesic with such a point cannot continue to generate the achronal boundary ${\dot{J}}^{+}(T)$, contradicting the property of $p$. Hence no point of $T$ can communicate with future null infinity, and
