A straightforward method to compute Hamilton's density for theories that are linear in the spacetime curvature is provided. It is shown that the lapse function and shift vector still give rise to primary constraints, while the induced…

In this paper, we define a class of new geometric flows on a complete Riemannian manifold. The new flow is related to the generalized (third order) Landau-Lifishitz equation. On the other hand it could be thought of a special case of the…
