abstract

We describe how the Schoen-Yau proof of the positive mass theorem can be extended to arbitrary dimensions. To overcome the problem of singularities, we propose a new inductive scheme. To carry out the inductive step, we use a combination of several techniques, including the shielding principle of Lesourd-Unger-Yau, as well as a conformal blow-up argument in the spirit of Bi-Hao-He-Shi-Zhu. Our arguments also rely on the Cheeger-Naber bound for the Minkowski dimension of the singular set.

A new boundary mass for asymptotically flat half-manifolds

math.DG · 2026-06-22 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

Introduces a boundary analogue of the Gauss-Bonnet-Chern mass for asymptotically flat half-manifolds, proves it is well-defined, establishes positive mass theorems for graphical and conformally flat graphs, and provides a Penrose-type inequality.

Riemannian Penrose inequality in all dimensions

math.DG · 2026-05-01 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

The Riemannian Penrose inequality is proven in arbitrary dimensions for smooth complete asymptotically flat manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature and compact outer-minimizing minimal boundary allowing singular sets of Hausdorff dimension at most n-8, with equality only for Riemannian Schwarzs

$L^\infty$-metrics on tori and Schoen's conjecture

math.DG · 2026-06-19 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Under a non-surjectivity assumption on the fundamental group homomorphism from the singular set, an L^∞ metric on a torus with non-negative scalar curvature outside a Minkowski dimension ≤ n-3+(n-1)^{-1} singular set extends to a smooth flat metric, proved via weighted scalar curvature and the relat
