| contents | We prove the existence of compact surfaces with prescribed constant mean curvature in asymptotically flat and asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds. More precisely, let $(M^3,g)$ be an asymptotically flat manifold with scalar curvature $R\ge 0$. Then, for each constant $c>0$, there exists a compact, almost-embedded, free boundary constant mean curvature surface $Σ\subset M$ with mean curvature $c$. Likewise, let $(M^3,g)$ be an asymptotically hyperbolic manifold with scalar curvature $R\ge -6$. Then, for each constant $c>2$, there exists a compact, almost-embedded, free boundary constant mean curvature surface $Σ\subset M$ with mean curvature $c$. The proof combines min-max theory with the following fact about inverse mean curvature flow which is of independent interest: for any $T$ the inverse mean curvature flow emerging out of a point $p$ far enough out in an asymptotically flat (or asymptotically hyperbolic) end will remain smooth for all times $t\in (-\infty,T]$. |
