SUMMARY:Positive mass theorem for ALE(AE) and ALF(AF) Toric 4-Manifolds
DESCRIPTION:General Relativity Seminar \nSpeaker: Aghil Alaee\, Clark University \nTitle: Positive mass theorem for ALE(AE) and ALF(AF) Toric 4-Manifolds \nAbstract: One of the fundamental conjectures in mathematical relativity is the positivity of total mass (if it is defined!) for complete non-compact Riemannian manifolds assuming appropriate lower bounds on scalar curvature. This conjecture has been proved for AE manifolds using several techniques\, starting with the celebrated results of Schoen-Yau and Witten. There are counter-examples to this conjecture in the AF\, ALF\, and ALE cases. In this talk\, we will refine this conjecture and prove it for toric 4-manifolds. The proof is robust and can be extended to higher dimensions if additional assumptions are added. This is a joint work with Marcus Khuri and Hari Kunduri.
