$f(T)$ Cosmology with Nonzero Curvature
Abstract
We investigate exact and analytic solutions in gravity within the context of a Friedmann--Lema\^{\i}tre--Robertson--Walker background space with nonzero spatial curvature. For the power law theory we find that the field equations admit an exact solution with a linear scalar factor for negative and positive spatial curvature. That Milne-like solution is asymptotic behaviour for the scale factor near the initial singularity for the model . The analytic solution for that specific theory is presented in terms of Painlev\'{e} Series for . Moreover, from the\ value of the resonances of the Painlev\'{e} Series we conclude that the Milne-like solution is always unstable while for large values of the indepedent parameter, the field equations provide an expanding universe with a de Sitter expansion of a positive cosmological constant. Finally, the presence of the cosmological term in the studied model plays no role in the general behavior of the cosmological solution and the universe immerge in a de Sitter expansion either when the cosmological constant term in the model vanishes.
