The positive mass conjecture says that, for any asymptotically flat space-like hypersurface \(M\) in a 4-dimensional Lorentzian manifold \(N\) satisfying the dominant energy condition, total energy is not less than the total linear momentum on each asymptotically flat end of \(M\). Furthermore, if the total energy is zero for some end, then \(M\) has only one end and \(N\) is flat along \(M\). This conjecture has been proved first by \textit{R. Schoen} and \textit{S.-T. Yau} [Commun. Math. Phys. 65, 45--76 (1979; Zbl 0405.53045), Commun. Math. Phys. 79, 231--260 (1981; Zbl 0494.53028)], and then by \textit{E. Witten} [Commun. Math. Phys. 80, No. 3, 381--402 (1981)]. The author proves a positive mass theorem for a class of modified asymptotically flat hypersurfaces satisfying a modified energy condition. For the entire collection see [Zbl 1034.58001].
