We prove the positive mass theorem for manifolds with distributional curvature which have been studied in \cite{Lee2015} without spin condition. In our case, the manifold $M$ has asymptotically flat metric $g\in C^0\bigcap W^{1,p}_{-q}$,…

We give some lower estimates of the ADM mass of an asymptotically flat (AF) Riemannian manifold without assuming that the scalar curvature of the manifold is nonnegative. Some sufficient conditions for an AF manifold to have nonnegative ADM…

In this paper we introduce a mass for asymptotically flat manifolds by using the Gauss-Bonnet curvature. We first prove that the mass is well-defined and is a geometric invariant, if the Gauss-Bonnet curvature is integrable and the decay…
