Abstract

Lagrangians and Lovelock-Rund’s identities are important derivations in theory of gravity which is generalization of Einstein's theory of general relativity. In this paper, we construct continuity equations in arbitrary Riemannian 4- spaces, which could be interpreted as conservation laws for the energy and momentum of the gravitational field. We put special attention in general relativity.
