AbstractWe 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 for a coupling to pseudo-scalar fields, thus yielding a Lagrangian which is even under parity transformations. In analogy to similar fields in gauge theories, we call these pseudo-scalar fields teleparallel axions. For the most general coupling of a single axion field, we derive the cosmological field equations. We find that for a family of cosmologically symmetric teleparallel geometries, which possess non-vanishing axial torsion, the axion coupling contributes to the cosmological dynamics in the early universe. Most remarkably, this contribution is also present when the axion is coupled to the teleparallel equivalent of general relativity, hence allowing for a canonical coupling of a pseudo-scalar to general relativity. For this case we schematically present the influence of the axion coupling on the fixed points in the cosmological dynamics understood as dynamical system. Finally, we display possible generalizations and similar extensions in other geometric frameworks to model gravity.

It is known that the classical variables are replaced by operators for the dynamics of the electromagnetic field, thus the second quantization is traditionally used. There is a significant question in modern theoretical physics area: “Why is there no fully developed first-quantized theory of photons?” In the present work, we argue that a photon wave function can be obtained if one uses the massless Duffin-Kemmer-Petiau (mDKP) equation. Thus, we focus on exact solutions of the mDKP equation the Robertson–Walker type spacetime via the Teleparallel Theory (TPT) of Gravity. The mDKP equation is generally known as the spinor formulation of the photons. We also focus on solutions of the Maxwell equations (MEs) to verify the equivalence between the mDKP and the ME formulations of the photons. It is shown that photons present an oscillatory behavior.

The purpose of this work is to examine the cosmic evolution in the presence of collisional matter (CM) with and without radiations in a modified Teleparallel theory involving a generic function [Formula: see text] which depends on the scalar torsion [Formula: see text] and the boundary term associated to the divergence of torsion [Formula: see text]. We select seven novel [Formula: see text] models including power law, logarithmic models and exponential models, some of these reported in [S. Bahamonde, M. Zubair and G. Abbas, Phys. Dark Univ. 19 (2018) 78; S. Bahamonde and S. Capozziello, The Eur. Phys. J. C. 77 (2017) 107; C. Escamilla-Rivera and J. L. Said, Class. Quantum Grav. 37 (2020) 165002] and discuss the evolutionary scenario. The behavior of deceleration parameter [Formula: see text], Hubble parameter [Formula: see text], Equation-of-state (EoS) for dark energy (DE) and effective EoS is presented. [Formula: see text]CDM epoch and crossing of phantom divide line (approaching to phantom era) is observed in scenarios like noncollisional matter (NCM) with radiation, CM with and without radiation. Results are found to be adequate with recent cosmic observations.

In this paper, initially we solve the Einstein field equations (EFEs) for a static spherically (SS) symmetric perfect fluid space-times in the [Formula: see text] gravity with the aid of some algebraic techniques. The extracted solutions are then utilized in order to get conformal vector fields (CVFs). It is important to mention that the adopted techniques enable us to obtain various classes of space-times with viable [Formula: see text] gravity models which already exist in the literature. Excluding all such classes, we find that there exist three cases for which the space-times admit proper CVFs, whereas in rest of the cases, CVFs become KVFs. We have also highlighted some physical implications of our obtained results.

In this work, the possible existence of wormhole solutions have been investigated in the extended teleparallel [Formula: see text] theory of gravity by incorporating the Lorentzian source of non-commutative geometry through the conformal motion. The physical concept of conformal symmetry becomes more arguable when it is discussed in the background of non-commutative geometry, especially with the Lorentzian source. In this context, two specific different models of the extended teleparallel theory, that is, [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text] (where [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] being real constants and [Formula: see text] a positive integer) have been studied. The corresponding energy conditions are worked out and are analyzed graphically in the presence of the conformal motion with Lorentzian source. The presence of the exotic matter has been confirmed due to the violation of null energy conditions under some particular conditions, thereby proving the existence of the wormhole geometries in both of the models under investigation. Moreover, the stability of the wormhole geometries via the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkov equation has been discussed. It is concluded that these wormhole solutions supported by the non-exotic matter truly exist and are well stable under the extended teleparallel gravity.

This study presents mesonic tilted cosmological models with wet dark fluid in the F(T) theory of gravity, which is an extension of the Teleparallel theory of gravity, where T is the torsion scalar. In this paper, a new idea is introduced about the F(T) theory of gravity with the help of tilt angle, heat conduction, and mesonic wet dark fluid. The cosmological evolution in F(T) models is investigated. The physical and geometrical aspects of the models are also discussed.

We investigate alternative candidates to dark energy that can explain the current state of the universe in the framework of the generalized teleparallel theory of gravity f(T ) where T denotes the torsion scalar. To achieve this, we carried out a series of reconstruction taking into account to the ordinary and entropy-corrected versions of the holographic and new agegraphic dark energy models. These models used as alternative to dark energy in the literature in order describe the current state of our universe. It is remarked that the models reconstructed indicates behaviors like phantom or quintessence models. Furthermore, we also generated the EoS parameters associated to entropy-corrected models and we observed a transition phase between quintessence state and phantom state as showed by recent observational data. We also investigated on the stability theses models and we created the {r − s}. The behavior of certains physical parameters as speed of sound and the Statefinder parameters are compatible with current observational data.
