Boundary behaviors of spacelike constant mean curvature surfaces in Schwarzschild spacetime

Abstract

We prove that a spacelike spherical symmetric constant mean curvature (SSCMC) surface and a general spacelike constant mean curvature (CMC) surface with certain boundary condition at the future null-infinity in Schwarzschild spacetime are asymptotically hyperbolic in the sense of Wang \cite{Wang2001} and Chru\'sciel-Herzlich \cite{ChruscielHerzlich} respectively. Near the future null-infinity ($s=0$), we derive that the boundary data of spacelike CMC surfaces can be expressed as those on $\mathbb{S}^{2}$ up to three order and obtain a compatibility condition for fourth order derivatives near $s=0$. We also show that if the trace free part of the second fundamental forms $\mathring A$ of this spacelike CMC surface decay fast enough then the restriction of its associate function $P$ (for definition, see \eqref{defofp} ) on the null-infinity must be a first eigenfunction of the Laplace on $\mathbb{S}^2$ or constant. In particular in Minkowski spacetime, a uniqueness result and constructions of spacelike CMC surfaces near $s=0$ are proved. Also, we show that the inner boundary of certain spacelike CMC surfaces are totally geodesic.
