The teleparallel formulation of gravity theories reveals close structural analogies to electrodynamics, which are more hidden in their usual formulation in terms of the curvature of spacetime. We show how every locally Lorentz invariant…

By using a nonholonomic moving frame version of the general covariance principle, an active version of the equivalence principle, an analysis of the gravitational coupling prescription of teleparallel gravity is made. It is shown that the…

We explore an extension of the symmetric teleparallel gravity denoted the $f(Q)$ theory, by considering a function of the nonmetricity invariant $Q$ as the gravitational Lagrangian. Some interesting properties could be found in the $f(Q)$…

Symmetric teleparallel gravity theories, in which the gravitational interaction is attributed to the nonmetricity of a flat, symmetric, but not metric-compatible affine connection, have been a topic of growing interest in recent studies.…

Two parameters scale factor leading to bouncing cosmology is considered. We show that at some model parameters we obtain the deceleration parameter $q_0\approx -0.535$ at the current epoch which is in agreement with the Planck data. The…

Teleparallel based cosmological models provide a description of gravity in which torsion is the mediator of gravitation. Several extensions have been made within the so-called Teleparallel equivalent of general relativity which is…

We consider the most general teleparallel theory of gravity whose action is a linear combination of the five scalar invariants which are quadratic in the torsion tensor. Since two of these invariants possess odd parity, they naturally allow…

Although equivalent to general relativity, teleparallel gravity is conceptually speaking a completely different theory. In this theory, the gravitational field is described by torsion, not by curvature. By working in this context, a new…
