Abstract: We obtain some estimates on the area of the boundary and on the volume of a certain free boundary hypersurface Sigma with nonpositive Yamabe invariant in a Riemannian n-manifold with bounds for the scalar curvature and the mean curvature of the boundary. Assuming further that Sigma is locally volume-minimizing in a manifold Mn with scalar curvature bounded below by a nonpositive constant and mean convex boundary, we conclude that locally M splits along Sigma. In the case that the scalar curvature of M is at least −n(n−1) and Sigma locally minimizes a certain functional inspired by [30], a neighborhood of Sigma in M is isometric to ((−varepsilon,varepsilon)imesSigma,dt2+e2tg), where g is Ricci flat.
