Many of these results are inspired by the positive mass theorem in general relativity. In particular, we discuss the recent solution of Min-Oo's Conjecture for the hemisphere (cf. [13]). We also analyze the case of equality in Bray's volume comparison theorem.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2011-11-21T06:32:08.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "scalar curvature", "rigidity phenomena", "brays volume comparison theorem", "positive mass theorem", "rigidity results" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2010arXiv1008.3097B" } } }
