    The paper is devoted to the formulation and proof of a generalization of the positive energy theorem for spaces with asymptotic SUSY compactification which has non-symmetric initial data (the Calabi-Yau compactification). The famous positive energy theorem for the isolated gravitational system known from Arnowitt-Deser-Misner formulation of gravity has several proofs. One of them was given by Witten. The argument of the present author is just inspired by Witten's spinor method and the use of the Dirac-Witten operator. Then, the generalized positive energy theorem is a consequence of the generalized Bochner-Lichnerowicz-Weitzenböck formula also. This clearly written paper consists of five sections: Introduction and statement of the result; The Bochner-Lichnerowicz-Weitzenböck formula; Manifolds with parallel spinors; Fibered boundary calculus and the Dirac-Witten equation; Proof of the main theorem.
