In 1996, Huisen-Yau proved that every three-dimensional, asymptotically Schwarzschilden manifold with positive mass is uniquely foliated by stable spheres of constant mean curvature and they defined the center of mass using this CMC-foliation. Rigger and Neves-Tian showed in 2004 and 2009/10 analogous existence and uniqueness theorems for three-dimensional, asymptotically Anti-de Sitter and asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds with positive mass aspect function, respectively. Last year, Cederbaum-Cortier-Sakovich proved that the CMC-foliation characterizes the center of mass in the hyperbolic setting, too. In this article, the existence and the uniqueness of the CMC-foliation are further generalized to the wider class of asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds which do not necessarily have a well-defined mass aspect function, but only a timelike mass vector. Furthermore, we prove that the CMC-foliation also characterizes the center of mass in this more general setting.
