Energy-momentum and equivalence principle in non-Riemannian geometries

We introduce an energy-momentum density vector which is independent of the affine structure of the manifold and whose conservation is linked to observers. Integrating this quantity over time-like surfaces we can define Hamiltonian and momentum for the system which coincide with the corresponding ADM...

description We introduce an energy-momentum density vector which is independent of the affine structure of the manifold and whose conservation is linked to observers. Integrating this quantity over time-like surfaces we can define Hamiltonian and momentum for the system which coincide with the corresponding ADM definitions for the case of irrotational Riemann-ian manifolds.
