Abstract

We investigate exact solutions and the asymptotic dynamics for the Friedmann-Lema\^{\i}tre-Robertson-Walker universe with nonzero spatial curvature in the fourth-order modified teleparallel gravitational theory known as f(T,B)f\left( T, B\right) theory. We show that the field equations admit a minisuperspace description, and they can reproduce any exact form of the scale factor. Moreover, we calculate the equilibrium points and analyze their stability. We show that Milne and Milne-like solutions are supported, and the de Sitter universe is provided. To complete our analysis, we use Poincar\'e variables to investigate the dynamics at infinity.
