We prove that the intrinsic Riemannian geometry of compact cross-sections of any Einstein extremal horizon must admit a Killing vector field. If the cross-sections are two-dimensional spheres, this implies that the most general solution is the extremal Kerr horizon and completes the classification of the associated near-horizon geometries. This is based on a joint work with James Lucietti.
