Asymptotically Hyperbolic Manifold


An asymptotically hyperbolic manifold is a Riemannian manifold whose metric approaches a hyperbolic reference metric on its ends. In the spherical-end convention for curvature -1, the reference metric is

 b=(dr^2)/(1+r^2)+r^2sigma,

where sigma is the unit round metric on S^(n-1). Writing eta=sinh^(-1)r, one differentiated convention requires ||del _b^j(g-b)||_b=O(e^(-taueta)) for the prescribed derivative orders and some tau>0. The rate, regularity, and end geometry must be specified for a mass theorem.
