摘要
An energy for the homogeneous cosmological models is presented. More specifically, using all appropriate natural prescription, we find the energy within any region with any gravitational source for a large class of gravity theories-namely, those with a tetrad description-for all nine Bianchi types. Our energy is given by the value of the Hamiltonian with homogeneous boundary conditions this value vanishes for all regions in all Bianchi class A models, and it does not vanish for any class B model. This is SO not only for Einstein's general relativity but, moreover, for the whole three-parameter class of tetrad-teleparallel theories. For the physically favored one-parameter subclass, which includes the teleparallel equivalent of Einstein's theory as an important special case, the energy for all class B models is, contrary to expectation, negative.
