A Hilbert manifold structure is described for the ADM phase space of asymptotically flat initial data $(g,\pi)$ with local $H^2\times H^1$ Sobolev regularity. Solutions of the constraint equations form a Hilbert submanifold. A regularized…

A conjecture related to the Bartnik quasilocal mass, is that the infimum of the ADM energy, over an appropriate space of extensions to a compact 3-manifold with boundary, is realised by a static metric. It was shown by Corvino [Comm. Math.…

Consider a triple of "Bartnik data" $(\Sigma, \gamma,H)$, where $\Sigma$ is a topological 2-sphere with Riemannian metric $\gamma$ and positive function $H$. We view Bartnik data as a boundary condition for the problem of finding a compact…

Bartnik's quasi-local mass is a functional on Bartnik data $(\mathbb S^2,\gamma,H,P,\omega^\perp)$, consisting of a metric $\gamma$, scalar functions $H$ and $P$, and a 1-form $\omega^\perp$ on the $2$-sphere $\mathbb S^2$. We construct…

We provide a Hilbert manifold structure {\`a} la Bartnik for the space of asymptotically hyperbolic initial data for the vacuum constraint equations. The adaptation led us to prove new weighted Poincar{\'e} and Korn type inequalities for AH…

We investigate the Bartnik stationary extension conjecture, which arises from the definition of the spacetime Bartnik mass for a compact region in a general initial data set satisfying the dominant energy condition. This conjecture posits…
