We showed a positive energy theorem for asymptotically flat initial data sets with the concept of spectral PSC by He-Shi-Yu, Bi-Hao-He-Shi-Zhu and Brendle-Wang; and the Jang equation in Schoen-Yau, Eichmair and Jang. Then, we proved a…

We present several rigidity results for initial data sets motivated by the positive mass theorem. An important step in our proofs here is to establish conditions that ensure that a marginally outer trapped surface is "weakly outermost". A…
