v2: Revised discussion of the case with non-orthogonal corners, the matching between covariant and canonical formulas is now obtained thanks to the Legendre transform at the corner. Further amendments. Matches published version
We compute the Hamiltonian surface charges of gravity for a family of conservative boundary conditions, that include Dirichlet, Neumann, and York's mixed boundary conditions defined by holding fixed the conformal induced metric and the trace of the extrinsic curvature. We show that for all boundary conditions considered, canonical methods give the same answer as covariant phase space methods improved by a boundary Lagrangian, a prescription recently developed in the literature and thus supported by our results. The procedure also suggests a new integrable charge for the Einstein-Hilbert Lagrangian, different from the Komar charge for non-Killing and non-tangential diffeomorphisms. We study how the energy depends on the choice of boundary conditions, showing that both the quasi-local and the asymptotic expressions are affected. Finally, we generalize the analysis to non-orthogonal corners, confirm the matching between the covariant and canonical results without any change in the prescription, and discuss the subtleties associated with this case.
Brown-York quasilocal energy in Lanczos-Lovelock gravity and black hole horizons
在广义相对论中,准定域能量的标准候选者是布朗-约克能量,它本质上是一个二维的表面积分,其外在曲率位于平坦时空的类空超曲面的两个边界上。几年前,我们中的一个人已经证明,黑洞视界是由引力能和非引力能均分来定义的。利用准定域Brown-York能的上述定义,我们验证了广义相对论中关于静态带电和带电轴对称黑洞的均分猜想。我们进一步将Brown-York形式推广到Lanczos-Lovelock引力理论的所有阶,并验证了d= 2 m +2维纯Lovelock荷电黑洞的猜想,其中m是Lovelock作用量的阶数.事实证明,均分猜想只适用于纯洛夫洛克,而不适用于爱因斯坦-洛夫洛克,黑洞。
