Abstract
A generalized canonical formulation of gravity is devised for foliations of spacetime with codimension The new formalism retains -dimensional covariance and is especially suited to decompositions of spacetime. It is also possible to use the generalized formalism to obtain boundary contributions to the Hamiltonian.
