Energy-momentum (and angular momentum) for the Metric-Affine Gravity theory is considered from a Hamiltonian perspective (linked with the Noether approach). The important roles of the Hamiltonian boundary term and the many choices involved…
Using the Noether Charge formulation, we study a perturbation of the conserved gravitating system. By requiring the boundary term in the variation of the Hamiltonian to depend only on the symplectic structure, we propose a general…
In this work the definition of a quasilocal energy for four dimensional first order gravity is developed. Using this an action principle which is adequate for the canonical ensemble is obtained. The microcanonical action principle is…
We present the gravitational action and Hamiltonian for a spatially bounded region of an eternal black hole. The Hamiltonian is of the general form $H=H_{+} - H_{-}$, where $H_{+}$ and $H_{-}$ are respectively the Hamiltonians for the…
We present a detailed examination of the variational principle for metric general relativity as applied to a ``quasilocal'' spacetime region $\M$ (that is, a region that is both spatially and temporally bounded). Our analysis relies on the…
The null infinity limit of the gravitational energy-momentum and energy flux determined by the covariant Hamiltonian quasi-local expressions is evaluated using the NP spin coefficients. The reference contribution is considered by three…
We have proposed a program for determining the reference for the quasi-local energy defined in the covariant Hamiltonian formalism. Our program has been tested by applying it to the spherically symmetric spacetimes. With respect to…
The Hamiltonian for physical systems and dynamic geometry generates the evolution of a spatial region along a vector field. It includes a boundary term which not only determines the value of the Hamiltonian, but also, via the boundary term…
We discuss relations between the initial boundary value problem (IBVP) and quasi-local Hamiltonians in GR. The latter have traditionally been based on Dirichlet boundary conditions, which however are shown here to be ill-posed for the IBVP.…
We study and derive the energy conditions in generalized non-local gravity, which is the modified theory of general relativity (GR) obtained by adding a term $m^{2n-2}R\Box^{-n}R$ to the Einstein-Hilbert action. Moreover, in order to get…
A set of exact quasi-local conservation equations is obtained in the (1+1)-dimensional description of the Einstein's equations of (3+1)-dimensional spacetimes. These equations are interpreted as quasi-local energy, linear momentum, and…
Quasilocal definitions of stress-energy-momentum -- that is, in the form of boundary densities (rather than local volume densities) -- have proven generally very useful in formulating and applying conservation laws in general relativity. In…
Using the Brown-York prescription for the definition of quasilocal gravitational energy-momentum tensor on a boundary and also complete canonical structure on a null boundary which has been found recently \cite{Aghapour:2018icu}, we propose…
In general relativity, the local gravitational energy is best characterised by the quasilocal mass. The small sphere limit of quasilocal mass provides us the most local notion of gravitational energy. In four dimensions, the limits were…
Quasilocal definitions of stress-energy-momentum---that is, in the form of boundary densities (in lieu of local volume densities)---have proven generally very useful in formulating and applying conservation laws in general relativity. In…
The boundary term of the gravitational Hamiltonian can be used to give the values of the quasi-local quantities as long as one can provide a suitable evolution vector field and an appropriate reference. On the two-surface boundary of a…
The Brown-York quasi-local energy of a charged rotating black hole described by the Kerr-Newman metric and enclosed by a fixed-radius surface is computed. No further assumptions on the angular momentum or the radial coordinate in…
We present two complementary approaches for determining the reference for the covariant Hamiltonian boundary term quasi-local energy and test them on spherically symmetric spacetimes. On the one hand, we isometrically match the 2-surface…
The Brown-York quasi-local energy of a rotating black hole described by the Kerr metric and enclosed by a fixed-radius surface is calculated by direct computation. No special assumptions on the angular momentum or the radial coordinate in…
Gravity, and the puzzle regarding its energy, can be understood from a gauge theory perspective. Gravity, i.e., dynamical spacetime geometry, can be considered as a local gauge theory of the symmetry group of Minkowski spacetime: the…
