Abstract:
The Poisson brackets of the generators of the Hamiltonian formalism for general
relativity are obtained with allowance for surface terms of arbitrary form. For
Minkowski space there exists the asymptotic Poincaré group, which is the semidirect
product of the Poincaré group and an infinite subgroup for which the algebra
of generators with surface terms closes. A criterion invariant with respect to
the choice of the coordinate system on the hypersurfaces is obtained for realization
of the Poincaré group in asymptotically flat space-time. The “background” fiat
metric on the hypersurfaces and Poincaré group that preserve it are determined
nonuniquely; however, the numerical values of the generators do not depend on the
freedom of this choice on solutions of the constraint equations. For an asymptotically
Galilean metric, the widely used boundary conditions are determined more accurately.
A prescription is given for application of the Arnowitt–Deser–Misner decomposition
in the case of a slowly decreasing contribution from coordinate and time transformations.
