Teleparallel gravity has significantly increased in popularity in recent decades, bringing attention to Einstein's other theory of gravity. In this Review, we relate this form of geometry to the broader metric-affine approach to forming…

We study logamediate inflation in the context of $f(T)$ teleparallel gravity. $f(T)$-gravity is a generalization of the teleparallel gravity which is formulated on the Weitzenb\"{o}ck spacetime, characterized by the vanishing curvature…

Teleparallel gravity is a modified theory of gravity for which the Ricci scalar $R$ of the underlying geometry in the action is replaced by an arbitrary functional form of torsion scalar $T$. In doing so, cosmology in $% f(T)$ gravity…

Teleparallel Gravity offers the possibility of reformulating gravity in terms of torsion by exchanging the Levi-Civita connection with the Weitzenb\"ock connection which describes torsion rather than curvature. Surprisingly, Teleparallel…

We present a class of cosmological solutions for a generalized teleparallel gravity with, $f(T)=T+\tilde{\alpha}(-T)^n$, where $\tilde{\alpha}$ is some parameter and $n$ is an integer or half-integer. Choosing $\tilde{\alpha} \sim G^{n-1}$,…
