A nondiagonal spherically symmetric tetrad field, involving four unknown functions of radial coordinaterplus an angleΦ, which is a generalization of the azimuthal angleϕ, is applied to the field equations of (1+4)-dimensionalf(T)gravity theory. A special vacuum solution with one constant of integration is derived. The physical meaning of this constant is shown to be related to the gravitational mass of the system and the associated metric represents Schwarzschild in (1+4)-dimension. The scalar torsion related to this solution vanishes. We put the derived solution in a matrix form and rewrite it as a product of three matrices: the first represents a rotation while the second represents an inertia and the third matrix is the diagonal square root of Schwarzschild spacetime in (1+4)-dimension.

Chapter 3 used the Schwarzschild metric to obtain predictions for the Solar System. In this chapter, that metric is derived as the unique static, spherically symmetric solution of the vacuum Einstein field equations. For the Solar System, this vacuum solution must be joined to an “interior solution” describing the interior of the Sun. Such solutions are discussed briefly. If, on the other hand, one assumes “vacuum all the way down,” the solution describes a black hole. The chapter analyzes the geometry and physics of the nonrotating black hole: the event horizon, the Kruskal-Szekeres extension, the horizon as a trapped surface and as a Killing horizon. Penrose diagrams are introduced, and a short discussion is given of the four laws of black hole mechanics.

A general tetrad field with sixteen unknown functions is applied to the field equations off(T)gravity theory. An analytic vacuum solution is derived with two constants of integration and an angleΦthat depends on the angle coordinateϕand radial coordinater. The tetrad field of this solution is axially symmetric and the scalar torsion vanishes. We calculate the associated metric of the derived solution and show that it represents Kerr spacetime. Finally, we show that the derived solution can be described by two local Lorentz transformations in addition to a tetrad field that is the square root of the Kerr metric. One of these local Lorentz transformations is a special case of Euler’s angles and the other represents a boost when the rotation parameter vanishes.

The predictions for the perihelion shift, the deflection of light, and the delay time of a light ray are calculated in the nonsymmetric theory of gravitation. An upper bound for the parameter l (that occurs as a constant of integration in the static, spherically symmetric solution of the field equations) is obtained for the sun for the experimental value of the perihelion shift of Mercury, yielding [Formula: see text]. The upper bound on [Formula: see text] obtained from the Viking spacecraft time-delay experiment is [Formula: see text]. For [Formula: see text], we find that the theory is consistent with the standard relativistic experiments for the solar system. The theory predicts that the perihelion of a satellite could reverse its direction of precession if it orbits close enough to the sun. The results for a highly eccentric satellite orbit are calculated in terms of the value [Formula: see text].

A nondiagonal tetrad field having six unknown functions plus an angle Φ, which is a function of the radial coordinate r, azimuthal angle θ and the polar angle ϕ, is applied to the charged field equations of modified teleparallel theory of gravity. A special nonvacuum solution is derived with three constants of integration. The tetrad field of this solution is axially symmetric and its scalar torsion is constant. The associated metric of the derived solution gives Kerr–Newman spacetime. We have shown that the derived solution can be described by a local Lorentz transformations plus a diagonal tetrad field that is the square root of the Kerr–Newman metric. We show that any solution of general relativity (GR) can be a solution in f(T) under certain conditions.

AbstractIn the framework of Teleparallel Gravity, we derive a charged non-vacuum solution for a physically symmetric tetrad field with two unknown functions of radial coordinate. The field equations result in a closed-form adopting particular metric potentials and a suitable anisotropy function combined with the charge. Under these circumstances, it is possible to obtain a set of configurations compatible with observed pulsars. Specifically, boundary conditions for the interior spacetime are applied to the exterior Reissner–Nordström metric to constrain the radial pressure that has to vanish through the boundary. Starting from these considerations, we are able to fix the model parameters. The pulsar $$\textit{PSR J 1614-2230}$$ PSR J 1614 - 2230 , with estimated mass $$M= 1.97 \pm 0.04\, M_{\circledcirc },$$ M = 1.97 ± 0.04 M ⊚ , and radius $$R= 9.69 \pm 0.2$$ R = 9.69 ± 0.2 km is used to test numerically the model. The stability is studied, through the causality conditions and adiabatic index, adopting the Tolman–Oppenheimer–Volkov equation. The mass–radius (M, R) relation is derived. Furthermore, the compatibility of the model with other observed pulsars is also studied. We reasonably conclude that the model can represent realistic compact objects.

This paper formulates the exact static anisotropic spherically symmetric solution of the field equations through gravitational decoupling. To accomplish this work, we add a new gravitational source in the energy–momentum tensor of a perfect fluid. The corresponding field equations, hydrostatic equilibrium equation as well as matching conditions are evaluated. We obtain the anisotropic model by extending the known Durgapal and Gehlot isotropic solution and examined the physical viability as well as the stability of the developed model. It is found that the system exhibits viable behavior for all fluid variables as well as energy conditions and the stability criterion is fulfilled.

It was shown by Birkhoff ((1), p. 253) that every spherically symmetric solution of the field equations of general relativity for empty space,may be reduced, by suitable coordinate transformations, to the static Schwarzschild form:where m is a constant. This result is known as Birkhoff's theorem and excludes the possibility of spherically symmetric gravitational radiation. Different proofs of the theorem have been given by Eiesland(2), Tolman(3), and Bonnor ((4), p. 167).
