We remark on the existence of non-linearly realized conformal symmetries for scalar adiabatic perturbations in cosmology. These conformal symmetries are present for any cosmological background, beyond any slow-roll or quasi-de Sitter…

We construct a theory in which the gravitational interaction is described only by torsion, but that generalizes the Teleparallel Theory still keeping the invariance of local Lorentz transformations in one particular case. We show that our…

We consider some aspects of conformal symmetry in a metric-scalar-torsion system. It is shown that, for some special choice of the action, torsion acts as a compensating field and the full theory is conformally equivalent to General…
