W. Simon proved a conformal positive mass theorem, which was used to prove uniqueness of black holes later. In this note, we will generalize Simon's conformal positive mass theorem in two directions. First we will consider spacetime version…
For asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds of dimension $n$ with scalar curvature at least equal to $-n(n-1)$ the conjectured positive mass theorem states that the mass is non-negative, and vanishes only if the manifold is isometric to…
We prove a positive mass theorem for spaces which asymptotically approach a flat Euclidean space times a Calabi-Yau manifold (or any special honolomy manifold except the quaternionic K\"ahler). This is motivated by the very recent work of…
We prove positive mass theorems for asymptotically hyperbolic and asymptotically locally hyperbolic Riemannian manifolds with black-hole-type boundaries.
In this paper, we want to prove positive mass theorems for ALF and ALG manifolds with model spaces $\mathbb R^{n-1}\times \mathbb S^1$ and $\mathbb R^{n-2}\times \mathbb T^2$ respectively in dimensions no greater than $7$ (Theorem…
We prove the positive mass theorem on conical manifold with small cone angle and co-dimensional two singularities under the assumption that the ambient manifold admits a spin structure and locally conformal flat
Building upon dimension reduction techniques in the study of positive scalar curvature (PSC) geometry, we prove an effective version of the positive mass theorem (PMT) for asymptotically flat (AF) manifolds of dimension $n\leq 8$ with…
Motivated by Witten's spinor proof of the positive mass theorem, we analyze asymptotically constant harmonic spinors on complete asymptotically flat nonspin manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature.
We prove a Riemannian positive mass theorem for manifolds with a single asymptotically flat end, but otherwise arbitrary other ends, which can be incomplete and contain negative scalar curvature. The incompleteness and negativity is…
In this paper, we consider asymptotically flat Riemannnian manifolds $(M^n,g)$ with $C^0$ metric $g$ and $g$ is smooth away from a closed bounded subset $\Sigma$ and the scalar curvature $R_g\ge 0$ on $M\setminus \Sigma$. For given $n\le…
Work of D. Stern and Bray-Kazaras-Khuri-Stern provide differential-geometric identities which relate the scalar curvature of Riemannian 3-manifolds to global invariants in terms of harmonic functions. These quantitative formulas are useful…
We affirm the rigidity conjecture of the spacetime positive mass theorem in dimensions less than eight. Namely, if an asymptotically flat initial data set satisfies the dominant energy condition and has $E=|P|$, then $E=|P|=0$, where $(E,…
Let $\mathcal{E}$ be an asymptotically Euclidean end in an otherwise arbitrary complete and connected Riemannian spin manifold $(M,g)$. We show that if $\mathcal{E}$ has negative ADM-mass, then there exists a constant $R > 0$, depending…
We study the stability of the Positive Mass Theorem (PMT) in the case where a sequence of regions of manifolds with positive scalar curvature $U_T^i\subset M_i^3$ are foliated by a smooth solution to Inverse Mean Curvature Flow (IMCF) which…
We study the positive mass theorem for certain non-smooth metrics following P. Miao's work. Our approach is to smooth the metric using the Ricci flow. As well as improving some previous results on the behaviour of the ADM mass under the…
In this short paper, we review recent progress on the positive mass theorem for spacelike hypersurfaces which approach to null infinity in asymptotically flat spacetimes. We use it to prove, if the functions $c(u, \theta, \psi)$, $d(u,…
We prove that the positive mass theorem applies to Lipschitz metrics as long as the singular set is low-dimensional, with no other conditions on the singular set. More precisely, let $g$ be an asymptotically flat Lipschitz metric on a…
Let $(M,g)$ be a compact connected spin manifold of dimension $n\geq 3$ whose Yamabe invariant is positive. We assume that $(M,g)$ is locally conformally flat or that $n \in \{3,4,5\}$. According to a positive mass theorem of Witten, the…
Let (M,g) be a complete 3-dimensional asymptotically flat manifold with everywhere positive scalar curvature. We prove that, given a compact subset K of M, all volume preserving stable constant mean curvature surfaces of sufficiently large…
We establish Gromov-Hausdorff stability of the Riemannian positive mass theorem under the assumption of a Ricci curvature lower bound. More precisely, consider a class of orientable complete uniformly asymptotically flat Riemannian…
