Weakly decaying asymptotically flat static and stationary solutions to the Einstein equations

Abstract

The assumption that a solution to the Einstein equations is static (or stationary) very strongly constrains the asymptotic behaviour of the metric. It is shown that one need only impose very weak differentiability and decay conditions a priori on the metric for the field equations to force the metric to be analytic near infinity and to have the standard Schwarzschildian falloff.
