The positive mass conjecture with arbitrary ends
The positive mass conjecture with arbitrary ends
Let be a complete manifold diffeomorphic to , let be a complete connected non-compact manifold, and let be a smooth complete metric on
with nonnegative scalar curvature . Assume that is asymptotically flat on with suitable fall-off. Positive mass conjecture with arbitrary ends. The ADM mass of measured in the asymptotically flat end is nonnegative. This extends the positive mass principle to an asymptotically flat end connected to an otherwise arbitrary complete non-compact manifold. The source presents it as a conjectural implication from which the LCF Liouville conjecture follows; no resolution is supplied in the given text.
