Equality of total inner and outer quasi-local masses
Let be asymptotically flat with total ADM mass . Define the total inner mass and total outer mass as the suprema of the corresponding inner and outer masses over all outer-minimising surfaces. The total quasi-local mass conjecture. Then
This conjecture would show that the interval-valued total quasi-local mass collapses to the ADM mass in the asymptotically flat setting. The supplied text gives no resolution evidence.
