That is, does there exist a <i>fill-in</i> of <span>((Sigma ,g,H))</span> with scalar curvature bounded below by <i>C</i>? We use variations of an argument due to Miao and the author (Int Math Res Not 7:2019, 2019) to explicitly construct fill-ins with different scalar curvature lower bounds, where we permit the fill-in to contain another boundary component provided it is a minimal surface. Our main focus is to illustrate the applications of such fill-ins to geometric inequalities in the context of general relativity. By filling in a manifold beyond a boundary, one is able to obtain lower bounds on the mass in terms of the boundary geometry through positive mass theorems and Penrose inequalities. We consider fill-ins with both positive and negative scalar curvature lower bounds, which from the perspective of general relativity corresponds to the sign of the cosmological constant, as well as a fill-in suitable for the inclusion of electric charge.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8268,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Global Analysis and Geometry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s10455-024-09956-x.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140889039","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
