Geometry of teleparallel theories

Understand

I give a brief introduction to and explain the geometry of teleparallel models of modified gravity.

• In particular I explain why, in my opinion, the covariantised approaches are not needed and the Weitzenb\"ock connection is the most natural representation of the parallel transport structure.
• An interesting point is that it also applies to the symmetric teleparallel case.
• I also share my thoughts on why the teleparallel framework does not seem to be a next rung in the ladder of understanding the real worlds' gravity.
