We discuss the concepts of energy and mass in relativity. On a finitely extended spatial region, they lead to the notion of quasilocal energy/mass for the boundary 2-surface in spacetime. A new definition was found in [27] that satisfies the positivity, rigidity, and asymptotics properties. The definition makes use of …

Consider a triple of "Bartnik data" (Σ,γ,H)(Σ, γ,H), where ΣΣ is a topological 2-sphere with Riemannian metric γγ and positive function HH. We view Bartnik data as a boundary condition for the problem of finding a compact Riemannian 3-manifold (Ω,g)(Ω,g) of nonnegative scalar curvature whose boundary is isometric to (Σ,γ)(Σ,γ)
