A Conformal Positive Mass Theorem with Noncompact Boundary

Abstract

We obtain an integral inequality for asymptotically linear harmonic functions on asymptotically flat 3-manifolds with noncompact boundary, which implies positivity of a convex combination of ADM masses of two conformally related metrics under a positivity condition on a corresponding convex combination of their scalar curvatures and boundary mean curvatures. This generalizes a result of Batista and Lopes de Lima, under conditions that do not assume positivity of scalar curvature.
