The limiting behavior of the Liu-Yau quasi-local energy | | P. P. Yu
; | | Date: |
7 Jun 2007 | | Abstract: | The small- and large-sphere limits of the quasi-local energy recently
proposed by Liu and Yau are carefully examined. It is shown that in the
small-sphere limit, the non-vacuum limit of the Liu-Yau quasi-local energy
approaches the expected value frac{4pi}{3} r^3 T(e_0, e_0)$. Here, T is the
energy-stress tensor of matter, e_0 in T_p M is unit time-like and
future-directed at the point p located at the center of the small sphere of
radius $r$ in the limit r o 0. In vacuum, however, the limiting value of the
Liu-Yau quasi-local energy contains the desired limit frac{r^5}{90} B(e_0,
e_0, e_0, e_0), where B is the Bel-Robinson tensor, as well as an extra term.
In the large-sphere limit at null infinity, for isolated gravitational sources,
the Liu-Yau quasi-local energy is shown to recover the Bondi mass and Bondi
news flux, in space-times that are asymptotically empty and flat at null
infinity. The physical validity of the Liu-Yau model in view of these results
is discussed. | | Source: | arXiv, arxiv.0706.1081 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
