We establish positive mass type theorems for asymptotically locally flat (ALF) manifolds, which have asymptotic ends modeled on circle bundles over a Euclidean base with fibers of constant length. In particular for dimensions $n\leq 7$, the…

The positive mass theorem states that the total mass of a complete asymptotically flat manifold with non-negative scalar curvature is non-negative; moreover, the total mass equals zero if and only if the manifold is isometric to the…
