On the Invariant Mass Conjecture in General Relativity

An asymptotic symmetries theorem is proved under certain hypotheses on the behaviour of the metric at spatial infinity. This implies that the Einstein-von Freud-ADM mass can be invariantly assigned to an asymptotically flat four dimensional end of an asymptotically empty solution of Einstein equations if the metric is a no-radiation metric or if the end is defined in terms of a collection of boost-type domains.
