Abstract

This paper surveys recent progress on issues related to the Bartnik quasi-local mass mBm_B. In addition, we formulate a number of new problems and conjectures regarding foundational properties of the mass mBm_B. This work is dedicated with pleasure to Robert Bartnik in honor of his 60th birthday.
