摘要：

We give an explicit expression for gravitational energy, written solely in terms of physical spacetime geometry, which (in suitable limits) agrees with the total Arnowitt-Deser-Misner and Trautman-Bondi-Sachs energies for asymptotically flat spacetimes and with the Abbott-Deser energy for asymptotically anti-de Sitter spacetimes. Our expression is a boundary value of the standard gravitational Hamiltonian. Moreover, although it stands alone as such, we derive the expression by picking the zero-point of energy via a "light-cone reference.'' [S0556-2821(99)07420-2].
