Abstract
In this paper, we consider asymptotically flat Riemannnian manifolds with metric and is smooth away from a closed bounded subset and the scalar curvature on . For given , if and the Hausdorff measure when or when , then we prove that the ADM mass of each end is nonnegative. Furthermore, if the ADM mass of some end is zero, then we prove that is isometric to the Euclidean space by showing the manifold has nonnegative Ricci curvature in RCD sense. This extends the result of [Lee-LeFloch2015] from spin to non-spin, also improves the result of [Shi-Tam2018] and [Lee2013]. Moreover, for , this confirms a conjecture of Lee [Lee2013].
