Quasi-local energy and isometric embedding
In this thesis, we consider the recent definition of gravitational energy at the quasi-local level provided by Mu-Tao Wang and Shing-Tung Yau. Their definition poses a variational question predicated on isometric embedding of Riemannian surfaces into the Minkowski space; as such, there is a naturall...
