Uniqueness conjecture for static asymptotically flat extensions
Uniqueness conjecture for static asymptotically flat extensions
Let be a compact Riemannian region with boundary . Let a static asymptotically flat manifold have boundary identified with and satisfy the matching conditions
Uniqueness conjecture for static extensions. determines a unique static asymptotically flat manifold with boundary satisfying these matching conditions.
Such a uniqueness result would provide a well-defined static exterior for computing the quasi-local mass. The paper gives the matching conditions and motivates the static extension construction, but does not establish uniqueness.
