Özet

Using the time evolution equations of (cosmological) general relativity in the first order Fischer-Marsden form, we construct an integral that measures the amount of nonstationary energy on a given spacelike hypersurface in D dimensions. The integral vanishes for stationary spacetimes; and with a further assumption, reduces to Dain's invariant on the boundary of the hypersurface which is defined with the Einstein constraints and a fourth order equation defining approximate Killing symmetries.
