Alexandrov immersion obstruction conjecture for the Bartnik mass
Alexandrov immersion obstruction conjecture for the Bartnik mass
Let be the space of smooth Alexandrov immersed -spheres, and let . For , let be the metric and mean curvature induced by the Euclidean metric. Alexandrov immersion obstruction conjecture. Either
so that is undefined, or is not achieved by a static vacuum solution with boundary data . This extends the known counterexamples from embedded spheres to general non-embedded Alexandrov immersions; the source presents it as open.
