In previous works, questioning the mathematical nature of the connection in the translations gauge theory formulation of Teleparallel Equivalent to General Relativity (TEGR) Theory led us to propose a new formulation using a Cartan connection. In this review, we summarize the presentation of that proposal and discuss it from a gauge theoretic perspective.

Abstract The Kerr-Schild double copy is a map between exact solutions of general relativity and Maxwell’s theory, where the nonlinear nature of general relativity is circumvented by considering solutions in the Kerr-Schild form. In this paper, we give a general formulation, where no simplifying assumption about the background metric is made, and show that the gauge theory source is affected by a curvature term that characterizes the deviation of the background spacetime from a constant curvature spacetime. We demonstrate this effect explicitly by studying gravitational solutions with non-zero cosmological constant. We show that, when the background is flat, the constant charge density filling all space in the gauge theory that has been observed in previous works is a consequence of this curvature term. As an example of a solution with a curved background, we study the Lifshitz black hole with two different matter couplings. The curvature of the background, i.e., the Lifshitz spacetime, again yields a constant charge density; however, unlike the previous examples, it is canceled by the contribution from the matter fields. For one of the matter couplings, there remains no additional non-localized source term, providing an example for a non-vacuum gravity solution corresponding to a vacuum gauge theory solution in arbitrary dimensions.

In this study, we obtain Einstein, Bergmann–Thomson (BT), Landau–Lifshitz (LL), Møller, Papapetrou (PP) and Tolman energy–momentum (EM) distributions for Ruban universe model in general relativity (GR) and teleparallel gravity (TG). We obtain same results for Einstein, Bergmann–Thomson and Landau–Lifshitz energy–momentum distributions in GR and TG. Also, we get same results for Einstein and Tolman energy–momentum distributions in GR. The Møller energy–momentum results are different in GR and TG. Also, using Ruban universe model, we obtain LRS Bianchi type I solutions and we get zero energy–momentum results for this universe model in GR and TG. These results of LRS Bianchi type I universe model agree with Aygün et al., Taşer et al., Doğru et al., Banerjee–Sen, Tryon and Xulu in different gravitation theories.

In this paper, we show that the general relativity action (and Lagrangian) in recent Einstein–Palatini formulation is equivalent in four dimensions to the action (and Langrangian) of a gauge field. First, we briefly showcase the Einstein–Palatini (EP) action, and then we present how Einstein fields equations can be derived from it. In the next section, we study Einstein–Palatini action integral for general relativity with a positive cosmological constant Λ in terms of the corrected curvature Ω c o r . We see that in terms of Ω c o r this action takes the form typical for a gauge field. Finally, we give a geometrical interpretation of the corrected curvature Ω c o r .
