Energy and momentum of general spherically symmetric frames on the regularizing teleparallelism

In the context of the covariant teleparallel framework, we use the 2-form translational momentum to compute the total energy of two general spherically symmetric frames. The first one is characterized by an arbitrary function H(r), which preserves the spherical symmetry and reproduces all the previous solutions, while the other one is characterized by a parameter ξ which ensures the vanishing of the axial of trace of the torsion. We calculate the total energy by using two procedures, i.e., when the Weitzenböck connection Γ_α^β is trivial, and show how H(r) and ξ play the role of an inertia that leads the total energy to be unphysical. Therefore, we take into account Γ_α^β and show that although the space×we use contain an arbitrary function and one parameter, they have no effect on the form of the total energy and momentum as it should be.     

The Momentum Four-Vector in Brans–Dicke Wormholes

In this work, in order to compute energy and momentum distributions (due to matter plus fields including gravitation) associated with the Brans–Dicke wormhole solutions we consider Møller’s energy-momentum complexes both in general relativity and the teleparallel gravity, and the Einstein energy-momentum formulation in general relativity. We find exactly the same energy and momentum in three of the formulations. The results obtained in teleparallel gravity is also independent of the teleparallel dimensionless coupling parameter, which means that it is valid not only in the teleparallel equivalent of general relativity, but also in any teleparallel model. Furthermore, our results also sustains (a) the importance of the energy-momentum definitions in the evaluation of the energy distribution of a given spacetime and (b) the viewpoint of Lessner that the Møller energy-momentum complex is a powerful concept of energy and momentum. (c) The results calculated supports the hypothesis by Cooperstock that the energy is confined to the region of non-vanishing energy-momentum tensor of matter and all non-gravitational fields.     

Interpretation of Rotation Curves of Spiral Galaxies in Modified Teleparallel Gravity

There is a significant difference between the calculation based on the theory of general relativity and observation of rotation curves of spiral galaxies. To describe this discrepancy, two distinct theories have been proposed so far： existence of dark matter and modification of underlying gravitational theory. In the absence of dark matter, it is assumed that the theory of general relativity on galactic scales needs to be modified. This letter is devoted to explaining this difference in a modified teleparMIeI gravity. We show that modified teleparallel gravity favors flatness of rotation curves of spiral galaxies much in the same way as observation shows.

Møller’s energy in the dyadosphere of a charged black hole

We use the Møller energy-momentum complex both in general relativity and teleparallel gravity to evaluate energy distribution (due to matter plus fields including gravity) in the dyadosphere region for Reissner-Nordström black hole. We found the same and acceptable energy distribution in these different approaches of the Møller energy-momentum complex. Our teleparallel gravitational result is also independent of the teleparallel dimensionless coupling constant, which means that it is valid in any teleparallel model. This paper sustains (a) the importance of the energy-momentum definitions in the evaluation of the energy distribution of a given space-time and (b) the viewpoint of Lessner that the Møller energy-momentum complex is a powerful concept for energy and momentum.     

Energy and spatial momentum of charged rotating frames in tetrad gravity

We compute the total energy and the spatial momentum of four charged rotating (Kerr-Newman) frames by using the gravitational energy-momentum 3-form within the framework of the tetrad formulation of the general relativity theory. We show how the effect of the inertial always makes the total energy divergent. We use a natural regularization method, which yields the physical value for the total energy of the system. We show how the regularization method works on a number of different rotating frames that are related to each other by the local Lorentz transformation. We also show that the inertial has no effect on the spatial momentum components.     

On the Møller Energy Associated with Black Holes

In this paper, we consider both Einstein's theory of general relativity and the teleparallel gravity (the tetrad theory of gravitation) analogs of the energy-momentum definition of Møller in order to explicitly evaluate the energy distribution (due to matter and fields including gravity) associated with a general black hole model which includes several well-known black holes. To calculate the special cases of energy distribution, here we consider eight different types of black hole models such as anti-de Sitter Cmetric with spherical topology, charged regular black hole, conformal scalar dyon black hole, dyadosphere of a charged black hole, regular black hole, charged topological black hole, charged massless black hole with a scalar field, and the Schwarzschild-de Sitter space-time. Our teleparallel gravitational result is also independent of the teleparallel dimensionless coupling constant, which means that it is valid not only in teleparallel equivalent of general relativity but also in any teleparallel model. This paper also sustains (a) the importance of the energy-momentum definitions in the evaluation of the energy distribution of a given spacetime and (b) the viewpoint of Lessner that the Møller energy-momentum complex is the powerful concept to calculate energy distribution in a given space-time.     

Energy and momentum of rotating frames in tetrad gravity

Within the framework of the tetrad formulation of general relativity theory, we compute the total energy and momentum of four rotating frames using the gravitational energy-momentum 3-form. We show how the effect of inertia always makes the total energy divergent. We use a natural regularization method to obtain physical values for the total energy of the system and show how it works on a number of explicit examples. We also show by calculation that inertia has no effect on the momentum components.     

Teleparallel equivalent theory of (1+1)-dimensional gravity

A theory of (1+1)-dimensional gravity is constructed on the basis of the teleparallel equivalent of general relativity.The fundamental field variables are the tetrad fields e i μ and the gravity is attributed to the torsion.A dilatonic spherically symmetric exact solution of the gravitational field equations characterized by two parameters M and Q is derived.The energy associated with this solution is calculated using the two-dimensional gravitational energy-momentum formula.
