Bray's multiple-end Penrose conjecture
Bray's multiple-end Penrose conjecture
Let be complete, asymptotically flat Cauchy data with and more than one end. Choose one end as special, and let be the minimum area required to enclose all the other ends. Let be the total mass of the chosen end. Bray's multiple-end Penrose conjecture. Then
This formulation uses trapped surfaces in the nonspecial ends to motivate an event horizon enclosing those ends. The supplied text does not establish whether the conjecture has been resolved.
