The no-additional-components conjecture for outermost regions
The no-additional-components conjecture for outermost regions
Let be an outermost region of a geometrostatic manifold, written as
where each is diffeomorphic to a three-ball, has stable minimal boundary , and every component in the outermost-region description is one of these regions. The no-additional-components conjecture. For every there exists an index such that and
Thus every component removed from the outermost region should contain at least one distinguished point , so no additional components with indices occur. The claim concerns the topology of outermost regions in this setting and is stated without a resolution in the source.
