Matter stability in modified teleparallel gravity

We study the matter stability in modified teleparallel gravity or f(T)$f(T)$ theories. We show that there is no Dolgov–Kawasaki instability in these types of modified teleparallel gravity theories. This gives for the f(T)$f(T)$ theories a great advantage over their f(R)$f(R)$ counterparts because from the stability point of view there isn?t any limit on the form of functions that can be chosen.
