Hamiltonian formulation of f(Riemann) theories of gravity
arXiv:0908.0679 · doi:10.1143/PTP.123.169
Abstract
We present a canonical formulation of gravity theories whose Lagrangian is an arbitrary function of the Riemann tensor. Our approach allows a unified treatment of various subcases and an easy identification of the degrees of freedom of the theory.
