{c}
<Richard Arnowitt> co-developed a canonical treatment of <general relativity> with <Stanley Deser> and <Charles W. Misner>. Their framework organizes spatial geometry, conjugate momenta and constraints, and supplies an asymptotic definition of gravitational <energy>.<The Dynamics of General Relativity by Richard Arnowitt and others>[Hamiltonian formulation and gravitational energy]{ref}
The <Arnowitt-Deser-Misner energy> is associated with suitable asymptotic boundary conditions; it is not a universal pointwise <energy>-density formula for an arbitrary spacetime.
