Teleparallel gravity has significantly increased in popularity in recent decades, bringing attention to Einsteins other theory of gravity. In this Review, we relate this form of geometry to the broader metric-affine approach to forming gravitational theories where we describe a systematic way of constructing consistent teleparallel theories that respect certain physical conditions such as local Lorentz invariance. We first use teleparallel gravity to formulate a teleparallel equivalent of general relativity which is dynamically equivalent to general relativity but which may have different behaviors for other scenarios, such as quantum gravity. After setting this foundation, we describe the plethora of modified teleparallel theories of gravity that have been proposed in the literature. In the second part of the Review, we first survey works in teleparallel astrophysics literature where we focus on the open questions in this regime of physics. We then discuss the cosmological consequences for the various formulations of teleparallel gravity. We do this at background level by exploring works using various approaches ranging from dynamical systems to Noether symmetries, and more. Naturally, we then discuss perturbation theory, firstly by giving a concise approach in which this can be applied in teleparallel gravity theories and then apply it to a number of important theories in the literature. Finally, we examine works in observational and precision cosmology across the plethora of proposal theories. This is done using some of the latest observations and is used to tackle cosmological tensions which may be alleviated in teleparallel cosmology. We also introduce a number of recent works in the application of machine learning to gravity, we do this through deep learning and Gaussian processes, together with discussions about other approaches in the literature.

The exploration of teleparallel gravity has been done from a dynamical systems point of view in order to be tested against the cosmological evolution currently observed. So far, the proposed autonomous systems have been restrictive over a constant dy namical variable, which contains information related to the dynamics on the $H_0$ value. It is therefore that in this paper we consider a generalization of the dynamical system by imposing a nonconstant degree of freedom over it which allows us to rewrite a generic autonomous dynamical analysis. We describe the treatment of our nonlinear autonomous system by studying the hyperbolic critical points and discuss an interesting phenomenological feature in regards to $H_0$: the possibility to obtain a best-fit value for this parameter in a cosmologically viable $f(T,B)$ model, a mixed power law. This result allows us to present a generic scenario in which it is possible to fix constraints to solve the $H_0$ tension at late times where its linearized solutions are considered.
We study teleparallel gravity in the emph{original} Kaluza-Klein (KK) scenario. Our calculation of the KK reduction of teleparallel gravity indicates that the 5-dimensional torsion scalar $^{(5)}T$ generates the non-Brans-Dicke type effective Lagrang ian in 4-dimension due to an additional coupling between the derivative of the scalar field and torsion, but the result is equivalent to that in general relativity. We also discuss the cosmological behavior in the FLRW universe based on the effective teleparallel gravity.

We construct a Weyl transverse diffeomorphism invariant theory of symmetric teleparallel gravity by employing the Weyl compensator formalism. The low-energy dynamics has a single spin two gravition without a scalar degree of freedom. By construction, it is equivalent to the unimodular gravity (as well as the Einstein gravity) at the non-linear level.
The Nobel Prize winning confirmation in 1998 of the accelerated expansion of our Universe put into sharp focus the need of a consistent theoretical model to explain the origin of this acceleration. As a result over the past two decades there has been a huge theoretical and observational effort into improving our understanding of the Universe. The cosmological equations describing the dynamics of a homogeneous and isotropic Universe are systems of ordinary differential equations, and one of the most elegant ways these can be investigated is by casting them into the form of dynamical systems. This allows the use of powerful analytical and numerical methods to gain a quantitative understanding of the cosmological dynamics derived by the models under study. In this review we apply these techniques to cosmology. We begin with a brief introduction to dynamical systems, fixed points, linear stability theory, Lyapunov stability, centre manifold theory and more advanced topics relating to the global structure of the solutions. Using this machinery we then analyse a large number of cosmological models and show how the stability conditions allow them to be tightly constrained and even ruled out on purely theoretical grounds. We are also able to identify those models which deserve further in depth investigation through comparison with observational data. This review is a comprehensive and detailed study of dynamical systems applications to cosmological models focusing on the late-time behaviour of our Universe, and in particular on its accelerated expansion. In self contained sections we present a large number of models ranging from canonical and non-canonical scalar fields, interacting models and non-scalar field models through to modified gravity scenarios. Selected models are discussed in detail and interpreted in the context of late-time cosmology.
In this paper the extension of the functional setting customarily adopted in General Relativity (GR) is considered. For this purpose, an explicit solution of the so-called Einsteins Teleparallel problem is sought. This is achieved by a suitable exten sion of the traditional concept of GR reference frame and is based on the notion of non-local point transformation (NLPT). In particular, it is shown that a solution to the said problem can be reached by introducing a suitable subset of transformations denoted here as textit{special} textit{NLPT}. These are found to realize a phase-space transformation connectingemph{}the flat Minkowski space-time with, in principle, an arbitrary curved space-time. The functional setting and basic properties of the new transformations are investigated.
