Teleparallel Poincar\'{e} Cosmology and $\Lambda$CDM Model

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2014-09-10 v1

Abstract

We apply the teleparallelism condition to the Poincar\'{e} gauge theory of gravity. The resultant teleparallelized cosmology is completely equivalent to the Friedmann cosmology derived from Einstein's general theory of relativity. The torsion is shown to play the role of the cosmological constant driving the cosmic acceleration. We then extend such theory to include the effect of spin and explore the possibility of accounting for the current accelerating universe by a spinning dark energy.
