| contents | Min-Oo's Conjecture is a positive curvature version of the positive mass theorem. Brendle, Marques, and Neves produced a perturbative counterexample to this conjecture. In 2021, Carlotto asked if it is possible to develop a novel gluing method in the setting of Min-Oo's Conjecture and in doing so produce new counterexamples. Here we build upon the perturbative counterexamples of Brendle--Marques--Neves in order to construct counterexamples that make advances on the theme expressed in Carlotto's question. These new counterexamples are non-perturbative in nature; moreover, we also produce examples with more complicated topology. Our main tool is a quantitative version of Gromov--Lawson Schoen--Yau surgery. |
