Uniqueness conjecture for complete static Einstein solutions

Let (Σ,g,N)(\Sigma,g,N) be a complete solution of the Static Einstein equations with regular but possibly disconnected (non-empty) horizon Σ\partial\Sigma. Suppose that the conformal metrics N2gN^2g and N2gN^{-2}g are complete outside given domains of compact closure on each end of (Σ,g)(\Sigma,g). Static uniqueness conjecture. The solution is either a Schwarzschild solution or a flat solution. The conjecture broadens known static black-hole uniqueness results by replacing asymptotic-flatness and end-topology assumptions with completeness of the two conformal metrics outside compact domains. Its status is not resolved in the supplied source.
