$f(T,B)$ teleparallel gravity is a recently proposed straightforward generalization of the popular $f(T)$ teleparallel gravity by the incorporation of a boundary term $B=\frac{2}{e}\partial_{i}(e T ^{i}) = \bigtriangledown_{i}T^{i}$ where…
We study metric teleparallel geometries, which can either be defined through a Lorentzian metric and flat, metric-compatible affine connection, or a tetrad and a flat spin connection, which are invariant under the transitive action of a…
We present a new gauge for asymptotically flat spacetime that can treat future and past null infinities ($\mathscr{I}^{+}$ or $\mathscr{I}^{-}$) democratically. Our gauge is complementary to Bondi and Ashtekar-Hansen gauges, and is adapted…

We study linear cosmological perturbations in the most general teleparallel gravity setting, where gravity is mediated by the torsion and nonmetricity of a flat connection alongside the metric. For a general linear perturbation of this…
We show that general relativity can be viewed as a higher gauge theory involving a categorical group, or 2-group, called the teleparallel 2-group. On any semi-Riemannian manifold M, we first construct a principal 2-bundle with the Poincare…
f(T) gravity is a generalization of the teleparallel equivalent of general relativity (TEGR), where T is the torsion scalar made up of the Weitzenb\"{o}ck connection. This connection describes a spacetime with zero curvature but with…

We generalize the scale invariant gravity by allowing a negative kinetic energy term for the classical scalar field. This gives birth to a new scalar-tensor theory of gravity, in which the scalar field is in fact an auxiliary field. For a…
