Equality of total inner and outer masses for exhausting legal surfaces
Let satisfy , and suppose there is a nested sequence of connected legal surfaces
with and . Here legal means outer-minimising and admitting an asymptotically flat extension satisfying outside the surface in which it remains outer-minimising. The legal-surface total-mass conjecture. Then
This conjecture addresses when the total mass interval is single-valued beyond the asymptotically flat setting. The supplied text presents it as a belief and gives no resolution evidence.
