Abstract

We study a class of non-smooth asymptotically flat manifolds on which metrics fails to be C1 across a hypersurface Σ. We first give an approximation scheme to mollify the metric, then we prove that the Positive Mass Theorem still holds on these manifolds if a geometric boundary condition is satisfied by metrics separated by Σ.
