On the behavior of quasi-local mass at the infinity along nearly round   surfaces
  In this paper, we study the limiting behavior of the Brown-York mass and Hawking mass along nearly round surfaces at infinity of an asymptotically flat manifold. Nearly round surfaces can be defined in an intrinsic way. Our results show that the ADM mass of an asymptotically flat 3-manifold can be approximated by some geometric invariants of a family of nearly round surfaces which approach to infinity of the manifold.
