Lee–Sormani intrinsic flat stability conjecture for the positive mass theorem

About 4 years old · traced to

Let MiM_i be a sequence of asymptotically flat 33-manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature and ADM mass tending to zero. Let Mi,extM_{i,\mathrm{ext}} denote the exterior region, let Ωi⊂Mi\Omega_i\subset M_i be regions inside Mi,extM_{i,\mathrm{ext}} containing ∂Mi,ext\partial M_{i,\mathrm{ext}}, and let Σi\Sigma_i be the outer boundary of Ωi\Omega_i. Assume that diam⁡(Ωi)≤D\operatorname{diam}(\Omega_i)\leq D and ∣Σi∣=A0|\Sigma_i|=A_0. Lee–Sormani's conjecture. Then Ωi→Ω0\Omega_i\to\Omega_0 in the intrinsic flat metric topology, where Ω0\Omega_0 is a ball in Euclidean space satisfying ∣∂Ω0∣=A0|\partial\Omega_0|=A_0. This is an intrinsic-flat formulation of stability for the positive mass theorem; the source presents it as a conjecture following the earlier Gromov–Hausdorff formulation.
