On the mass of static metrics with positive cosmological constant: I

Abstract: In this paper we propose and discuss a notion of mass for compact static metrics with positive cosmological constant. As a consequence, we characterise the de Sitter solution as the only static vacuum metric with zero mass. Finally, we show how to adapt our analysis to the case of negative cosmological constant, leading to a uniqueness theorem for the Anti de Sitter spacetime.MSC (2010): 35B06, 53C21, 83C57,

“…The virtual mass. As already discussed in [13], in the case of a positive cosmological constant there does not seem to be a general consensus about what the right notion of mass should be. For some possible approaches, as well as for more insights on the problems posed by the case Λ > 0, we refer the reader to the following references [1,6,7,8,22,34,43,50,51,54].…”

In our previous work [13], we have introduced a different point of view, leading to a new notion of mass, that we now recall.…”

“…Equation (VIII.5) below.When Λ is positive we review the argument of [2] (compare [4]), that the identity mentioned above provides a simple proof of an upper bound for entropy of horizons, Equation (IX.10) below. This upper bound has been rediscovered in [5,6], with different proofs.This work can be thought-of as a continuation of [7]. It reviews, in a slightly different manner, some results from [7] and considers further applications.…”
