Schwarzschild solution in extended teleparallel gravity
Tetrad field, with two unknown functions of radial coordinate and an angle
which is the polar angle times a function of the redial
coordinate, is applied to the field equation of modified theory of gravity.
Exact vacuum solution is derived whose scalar torsion, , is constant. When the angle coincides with the
polar angle , the derived solution will be a solution only for linear
form of gravitational theory.Comment: 8 pages Late
Energy of spherically symmetric spacetimes on regularizing teleparallelism
We calculate the total energy of an exact spherically symmetric solutions,
i.e., Schwarzschild and Reissner Nordstrm, using the gravitational
energy-momentum 3-form within the tetrad formulation of general relativity. We
explain how the effect of the inertial makes the total energy unphysical!
Therefore, we use the covariant teleparallel approach which makes the energy
always physical one. We also show that the inertial has no effect on the
calculation of momentum.Comment: 13 pages, Latex, No Figure, Will appear in IJMP
Regularization of gravity theories and local Lorentz transformation
We regularized the field equations of gravity theories such that the
effect of Local Lorentz Transformation (LLT), in the case of spherical
symmetry, is removed. A "general tetrad field", with an arbitrary function of
radial coordinate preserving spherical symmetry is provided. We split that
tetrad field into two matrices; the first represents a LLT, which contains an
arbitrary function, the second matrix represents a proper tetrad field which is
a solution to the field equations of gravitational theory, (which are
not invariant under LLT). This "general tetrad field" is then applied to the
regularized field equations of . We show that the effect of the arbitrary
function which is involved in the LLT invariably disappears.Comment: 12 page
A Kerr Metric Solution in Tetrad Theory of Gravitation
Using an axial parallel vector field we obtain two exact solutions of a
vacuum gravitational field equations. One of the exact solutions gives the
Schwarzschild metric while the other gives the Kerr metric. The parallel vector
field of the Kerr solution have an axial symmetry. The exact solution of the
Kerr metric contains two constants of integration, one being the gravitational
mass of the source and the other constant is related to the angular
momentum of the rotating source, when the spin density of the
gravitational source satisfies . The singularity
of the Kerr solution is studied
