Reconstruction of $f(T)$-gravity in the absence of matter

W. El Hanafy,
G. L. Nashed

Abstract: We derive an exact f (T ) gravity in the absence of ordinary matter in Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) universe, where T is the teleparallel torsion scalar. We show that vanishing of the energy-momentum tensor T µν of matter does not imply vanishing of the teleparallel torsion scalar, in contrast to general relativity, where the Ricci scalar vanishes. The theory provides an exponential (inflationary) scale factor independent of the choice of the sectional curvature. In addition, the obtained f (T ) acts just … Show more

“…In the context of F (T ) gravity, it is possible to explain the late-time acceleration of the Universe [146,366,367,370,380,384,[394][395][396][397][398][399][400][401], but there exist also local astrophysical solutions, and various metric solutions, see for example [373,375,379,385,390,402]. Finally for inflationary, bouncing cosmology and perturbation evolution studies, see [368,369,374,381,388,391,[403][404][405].…”

“…σ 1 et σ 2 are integration constants. Such a model in ( 41) is, according to the literature, the so-called exponential f (T ) model which, for example, can tend to the ΛCDM cosmology [39] or produces an inflationary scene in absence of all matter fields [40]. In large scalar torsion, the model in ( 41) can verify the second differential equation in (40) if the slow-roll condition holds true.…”
