Chaplygin and Polytropic Kantowski--Sachs Solutions in Teleparallel $F(T)$ Gravity

A covariant reconstruction framework for Kantowski--Sachs (KS) geometries sourced by Chaplygin-type and polytropic fluids in teleparallel $F(T)$ gravity is developed using the coframe--spin-connection formalism and the teleparallel invariant approach. The matter sector is modelled by nonlinear equations of state, including the generalized Chaplygin gas $p=-A/\rho^{\alpha}$ and a polytropic law $p=K\rho^{\Gamma}$. The corresponding conservation laws determine the dependence of the fluid density on the anisotropic KS volume $V=A_2A_3^2$. These source scalings are then inserted into the symmetric part of the covariant teleparallel field equations and used to reconstruct the functional form of $F(T)$ directly from the KS dynamics. Power-law and exponential ans\"atze generate distinct invariant reconstruction branches. In the power-law sector, the Chaplygin fluid produces mixed constant-plus-power source terms, while the polytropic sector generates density powers controlled by the polytropic index. In the exponential sector, the natural reconstruction variable is the shifted invariant $X=T_0-T$, leading to shifted teleparallel de Sitter branches. The reconstructed models are interpreted as local anisotropic cosmological sectors and, for contracting angular KS scale factors, as local Kantowski--Sachs black-hole-interior reconstruction branches. The analysis is local and branch-dependent; leading-order viability is assessed through \(F_T>0\) and \(F_{TT}>0\), while a complete perturbative stability analysis is left for future work. The reconstruction is entirely driven by nonlinear matter conservation laws, thereby reversing the standard reconstruction strategy in which the gravitational Lagrangian is prescribed a priori.

Electromagnetic Kantowski--Sachs Solutions in Teleparallel $F(T)$ Gravity

A covariant reconstruction framework for electromagnetic Kantowski--Sachs (KS) geometries in teleparallel $F(T)$ gravity is developed using the coframe/spin-connection (CSC) formalism and the invariant approach. In a restricted Maxwell-compatible branch, the electromagnetic conservation laws strongly constrain the anisotropic KS scale factors and lead to the scaling $\rho_{\mathrm{em}}\propto A_3^{-4}$. The corresponding symmetric and antisymmetric field equations are derived and used to reconstruct the functional form of $F(T)$ directly from the KS dynamics. Power-law and exponential ans\"atze generate distinct invariant reconstruction branches associated with electric, magnetic, and transverse electromagnetic sectors. The exponential branch naturally admits reduced teleparallel de Sitter limits and shifted models of the form $F(T)=f(T_0-T)$. The reconstructed branches describe anisotropic cosmological sectors together with local BH-interior-like sectors that may reproduce reduced BH-interior-like or RN--dS-type behaviors at the level of the KS dynamics. These branches are organized through the invariant coframe/spin-connection classification and screened using the necessary leading-order viability conditions $F_T>0$ and $F_{TT}>0$. The local and branch-dependent nature of the construction is emphasized throughout.

Static Spherically Symmetric Chaplygin and Polytropic Fluid Solutions in Teleparallel $F(T)$ Gravity

We investigate static, spherically symmetric (SS) spacetimes in covariant teleparallel $F(T)$ gravity sourced by nonlinear Chaplygin and polytropic fluids. Using the covariant coframe/spin-connection (CSC) formalism, we derive the corresponding field equations and conservation laws governing admissible matter distributions and nonlinear torsion sectors. A general reconstruction procedure is developed, allowing the systematic determination of teleparallel $F(T)$ models for arbitrary coframe ans\"atze and fluid equations of state. Focusing on power-law configurations, we obtain several classes of reconstructed solution branches, including constant-radius, compact-object-like, and wormhole-like (WH-like) branches. The Chaplygin sector naturally leads to effective dark-energy-like and exotic-matter candidate solution branches within the reconstruction framework, which may provide admissible sectors for wormhole-like reconstructed geometries, while the polytropic sector provides reconstructed branches that may serve as physically motivated candidates for future stellar-interior and compact-object models. We discuss the associated candidate horizon and throat conditions, torsion singularities, energy conditions, and local viability properties of the reconstructed branches. The resulting geometries are organized within a teleparallel invariant classification framework, highlighting the role of nonlinear torsion corrections in shaping the solution space. Overall, this work provides a unified covariant reconstruction framework for nonlinear-fluid sectors in teleparallel $F(T)$ gravity, identifying solution branches that may serve as candidates for future compact-object, stellar-interior, and wormhole studies.

Conceptual and Geometric Foundations for a Teleparallel Approach to Quantum Gravity

We revisit quantum field theory in curved spacetime (QFTCS) as a semi-classical framework for quantum matter on classical geometries, emphasizing its limitations, including vacuum ambiguity and background dependence. We briefly review major approaches to quantum gravity (QG), including Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG), string theory, and asymptotic safety, highlighting their conceptual challenges. Motivated by these issues, we outline a teleparallel framework based on coframe and spin-connection variables, where gravity is encoded in torsion rather than curvature. This framework naturally incorporates local Lorentz symmetry and fermionic couplings while displaying a gauge-like structure. We argue that the coframe/spin-connection pair provides an alternative and geometrically refined description of gravitational variables, which may serve as a useful starting point for future investigations of QG. The purpose of this work is not to provide a complete quantization of teleparallel gravity but to identify the geometric and conceptual ingredients that such a formulation would require.

Teleparallel $F(T)$ electromagnetic static spherically symmetric spacetime solutions

We investigate static, spherically symmetric (SS) spacetimes in covariant teleparallel \(F(T)\) gravity in the presence of electromagnetic sources. Starting from the coframe/spin-connection (CSC) pair formalism, we derive the field equations and associated conservation laws, which constrain admissible electromagnetic configurations and reconstructed teleparallel sectors. A general reconstruction procedure is established, allowing the systematic construction of nonlinear teleparallel \(F(T)\) models for arbitrary coframe ans\"atze. Focusing on power-law (PL) configurations, we obtain several classes of exact solutions, including constant-radius, black-hole-like (BH-like), and wormhole-like (WH-like) branches, and analyze their horizon structures, torsion singularities, and stability properties. The inclusion of electromagnetic sources leads to new charged solutions that generalize Reissner--Nordstr\"om (RN) spacetimes and reveal modified near-horizon and asymptotic behaviors. The results are further organized within an invariant classification framework, highlighting the role of torsion in shaping the solution space. Overall, this work provides a unified and covariant approach to the construction and interpretation of physically relevant compact-object, effective cosmological, and regularized strong-field sectors in nonlinear teleparallel gravity, with potential implications for strong-field tests beyond General Relativity (GR).

Electromagnetic Sources Teleparallel Robertson--Walker $F(T)$-Gravity Solutions

We investigate the teleparallel Robertson--Walker (TRW) $F(T)$-gravity solutions for a cosmological electromagnetic source in the current paper. We use and solve the TRW $F(T)$-gravity field equations (FEs) for each value of the $k$-parameter $(-1,\,0,\,+1)$ and the electromagnetic equivalent of the equation of state (EoS), leading to new teleparallel $F(T)$ solutions. For the $k=0$ cosmological case, we find new teleparallel $F(T)$ solutions for any scale factor $n$. For $k=\pm 1$ cosmological cases, we find exact and far-future approximated new teleparallel $F(T)$ solutions for slow, linear, fast and infinitely fast universe expansion summarized by analytical functions. All the new solutions are relevant for future cosmological applications, implying any electromagnetic source processes, such as the cosmological plasma models.

Dynamics of Interacting Murnaghan-Equation-of-State Fluids with Global Monopole and Nonlinear Power-Yang-Mills Hair in Critical-Dimension AdS Black Holes

We construct and analyze a novel family of exact higher-dimensional black hole solutions in Einstein-Power-Yang-Mills gravity minimally coupled to a scalar field multiplet supporting a global monopole and a surrounding anisotropic ''scalar gas'' whose stress-energy obeys a generalized Murnaghan equation of state. By adopting the Wu-Yang magnetic ansatz for the non-Abelian sector and enforcing the physically motivated radial condition $p_r=-\rho$, the field equations admit closed-form expressions for the matter density and a single-function lapse $F(r)$ expressed in terms of elementary and Gauss hypergeometric functions. The Murnaghan fluid interpolates between a non-linear core and an effective vacuum at a large radius, producing a backreaction encoded by parameters that control the stiffness and scalar-backreaction scale. We perform a systematic survey of classical energy condition, identifying regions of parameter space where the null energy condition/dominant energy condition holds while the strong energy condition is generically violated (phantom-like behavior), and examine curvature invariants to demonstrate that the solutions possess a central curvature singularity for $n>3$. Thermodynamic properties are derived in the extended phase space: explicit formulas for the Hawking temperature, entropy, conjugate potentials, and a generalized Smarr relation are obtained; the heat capacity exhibits divergencies and sign changes that mark local stability boundaries and second-order phase transitions. Varying the Yang-Mills charge, the nonlinearity index, the monopole coupling, and the Murnaghan parameters generates a rich phase behavior structure and topology changes in the defect ($\varphi$-Duan) map. The results underscore the manner in which gauge nonlinearity, topological defects, and dual-polytropic matter collaboratively transform BH thermodynamics and the topology of phase spaces.

Chaplygin and Polytropic gases Teleparallel Robertson-Walker $F(T)$ gravity solutions

This paper investigates the Teleparallel Robertson-Walker (TRW) $F(T)$ gravity solutions for a Chaplygin gas, and then for any polytropic gas cosmological source. We use the TRW $F(T)$ gravity field equations (FEs) for each $k$-parameter value case and the relevant gas equation of state (EoS) to find the new teleparallel $F(T)$ solutions. For flat $k=0$ cosmological case, we find analytical solutions valid for any cosmological scale factor. For curved $k=\pm 1$ cosmological cases, we find new approximated teleparallel $F(T)$ solutions for slow, linear, fast and very fast universe expansion cases summarizing by a double power-law function. All the new solutions will be relevant for future cosmological applications on dark matter, dark energy (DE) quintessence, phantom energy, Anti-deSitter (AdS) spacetimes and several other cosmological processes.

Traversable Wormhole Solutions in massive $F(T)$ gravity

We study traversable wormhole geometries in an $F(T)$ teleparallel framework augmented by a perturbative de Rham-Gabadadze-Tolley (dRGT) graviton-mass term. Adopting the static, spherically symmetric Morris-Thorne ansatz, we derive the field and conservation equations and decompose the effective energy-momentum tensor into torsional and massive contributions. Focusing on three representative redshift profiles, namely, constant, logarithmic, and power-law, together with two realizations of the massive sector (the general case and a uniform-pressure specialization), we construct exact, horizonless solutions that satisfy the Morris-Thorne flaring-out condition and are asymptotically flat. The effective matter sector either respects the standard energy conditions or only mildly violates them within controlled parameter ranges. Crucially, the dRGT term supplies an additional anisotropic pressure that can sustain the throat without invoking explicitly exotic matter; in the vanishing-mass limit, the configurations reduce smoothly to standard $F(T)$ wormholes, confirming the internal consistency of the framework.

Scalar Field Static Spherically Symmetric Solutions in Teleparallel $F(T)$ Gravity

We investigate in this paper the static radial coordinate-dependent spherically symmetric spacetime in teleparallel $F(T)$ gravity for a scalar field source. We begin by setting the static field equations (FEs) to be solved and solve the conservation laws for scalar field potential solutions. We simplify the FEs and then find a general formula for computing the new teleparallel $F(T)$ solutions applicable for any scalar field potential $V(T)$ and coframe ansatz. We compute new non-trivial teleparallel $F(T)$ solutions by using a power-law coframe ansatz for each scalar potential case arising from the conservation laws. We apply this formula to find new exact teleparallel $F(T)$ solutions for several cases of coframe ansatz parameter. The new $F(T)$ solution classes will be relevant for {studying the models close to Born--Infeld and/or scalarized Black Hole (BH) solutions inside the} dark energy (DE) described by a fundamental scalar field such as quintessence, phantom energy or quintom system, to name only those types.

Scalar field source Teleparallel Robertson-Walker F(T)-gravity solutions

This paper investigates the teleparallel Robertson--Walker (TRW) $F(T)$ gravity solutions for a scalar field source. We use the TRW $F(T)$ gravity field equations (FEs) for each $k$-parameter value case added by a scalar field to find new teleparallel $F(T)$ solutions. For $k=0$, we find an easy-to-compute $F(T)$ solution formula applicable for any scalar field source. Then, we obtain, for $k=-1$ and $+1$ situations, some new analytical $F(T)$ solutions, only for specific $n$-parameter values and well-determined scalar field cases. We can find by those computations a large number of analytical teleparallel $F(T)$ solutions independent of any scalar potential $V(\phi)$ expression. The $V(\phi)$ independence makes the FE solving and computations easier. The new solutions will be relevant for future cosmological applications in dark matter, dark energy (DE) quintessence, phantom energy and quintom models of physical processes.

Scalar Field Kantowski--Sachs Solutions in Teleparallel $F(T)$ Gravity

In this paper, we investigate time-dependent Kantowski--Sachs spherically symmetric teleparallel $F(T)$ gravity with a scalar field source. We begin by setting the exact field equations to be solved and solve conservation laws for possible scalar field potential, $V\left(\phi\right)$, solutions. Then, we find new non-trivial teleparallel $F(T)$ solutions by using power-law and exponential ansatz for each potential case arising from conservation laws, such as linear, quadratic, or logarithmic, to name a few. We find a general formula allowing us to compute all possible new teleparallel $F(T)$ solutions applicable for any scalar field potential and ansatz. Then, we apply this formula and find a large number of exact and approximate new teleparallel $F(T)$ solutions for several types of cases. Some new $F(T)$ solution classes may be relevant for future cosmological applications, especially concerning dark matter, dark energy quintessence, phantom energy leading to the Big Rip event, and quintom models of physical processes.

Cosmological solutions in teleparallel $F(T,B)$ gravity

In this paper, we find several teleparallel $F(T,B)$ solutions for a Robertson--Walker (TRW) cosmological spacetime. We first set and solve the $F(T,B)$-type field equations for a linear perfect fluid. Using similar techniques, we then find new $F(T,B)$ solutions for non-linear perfect fluids with a weak quadratic correction term to the linear equation of state (EoS). Finally, we solve for new classes of $F(T,B)$ solutions for a scalar field source by assuming a power-law scalar field and then an exponential scalar field in terms of the time coordinate. For flat cosmological cases ($k=0$ cases), we find new exact and approximate $F(T,B)$ solutions. For non-flat cases ($k=\pm 1$ cases), we only find new teleparallel $F(T,B)$ solutions for some specific and well-defined cosmological expansion subcases. We conclude by briefly discussing the impact of these new teleparallel solutions on cosmological processes such as dark energy (DE) quintessence and phantom energy models.

The $D$-dimensional charged AdS black holes solutions in polytropic dark energy from Barrow entropy

This paper mainly aims to solve the Anti deSitter Black Holes (AdS BH) under the Barrow entropy under polytropic gas fluid, especially the Chaplygin Gas. First, we develop this last polytropic model in detail to then obtain the possible solutions and thermodynamic conditions on the Energy-Momentum and the Barrow Entropy for spacetimes of spatial dimension $D>3$. Then, we focus on thermidynamic solutions and the different impacts on the Barrow entropy of the black hole, the temperature profile, the mass and the various physical quantities involved. Afterwards, we focus on the specific cases of the solutions of dimensions $D=4$ and $5$ in order to concretely test the models, especially from the point of view of the thermodynamic topology. Finally, we generalize everything by elaborating and testing the stability of the models to arrive at the thermal geometry of the AdS BH.

Kantowski-Sachs spherically symmetric solutions in teleparallel $F(T)$ gravity

In this paper, we investigate time-dependent Kantowski-Sachs spherically symmetric teleparallel $F(T)$ gravity in vacuum and in a perfect isotropic fluid. We begin by finding the field equations and solve for new teleparallel $F(T)$ solutions. With a power-law ansatz for the coframe functions, we find new non-trivial teleparallel $F(T)$ vacuum solutions. We then proceed to find new non-trivial teleparallel $F(T)$ solutions in a perfect isotropic fluid with both linear and non-linear equation of state. We find a great number of new exact and approximated teleparallel $F(T)$ solutions. These classes of new solutions are relevant for future cosmological applications.

Static spherically symmetric perfect fluid solutions in teleparallel F(T) gravity

In this paper, we investigate static spherically symmetric teleparallel F(T) gravity containing a perfect isotropic fluid. We first write the field equations and proceed to find new teleparallel F(T) solutions for perfect isotropic and linear fluids. By using a power-law ansatz for the coframe components, we find several classes of new non-trivial teleparallel F(T) solutions. We also find a new class of teleparallel F(T) solutions for a matter dust fluid. After we solve the field equations for a non-linear perfect fluid. Once again, there are several new exact teleparallel F(T) solutions and also some approximated teleparallel F(T) solutions. All these classes of new solutions may be relevant for future cosmological and astrophysical applications.

The quantum Hall effect under the influence of gravity and inertia: A unified approach

The quantum Hall effect under the influence of gravity and inertia is studied in a unified way. We make use of an algebraic approach, as opposed to an analytic approach. We examine how both the integer and the fractional quantum Hall effects behave under a combined influence of gravity and inertia using a unified Hamiltonian. For that purpose, we first re-derive, using the purely algebraic method, the energy spectrum of charged particles moving in a plane perpendicular to a constant and uniform magnetic field either (i) under the influence of a nonlinear gravitational potential or (ii) under the influence of a constant rotation. The general Hamiltonian for describing the combined effect of gravity, rotation and inertia on the electrons of a Hall sample is then built and the eigenstates are obtained. The electrons mutual Coulomb interaction that gives rise to the familiar fractional quantum Hall effect is also discussed within a such a combination.

Teleparallel Robertson-Walker geometries and applications

In teleparallel geometries the coframe and corresponding spin-connection are the principal geometric objects and consequently the appropriate definition of a symmetry is that of an affine symmetry. The set of invariant coframes and their corresponding spin connections that respect the full six dimensional Lie algebra of Robertson-Walker affine symmetries are displayed and discussed. We will refer to such geometries as teleparallel Robertson-Walker (TRW) geometries, where the corresponding derived metric is of Robertson-Walker form and is characterized by the parameter $k = (-1,0,1)$. The field equations are explicitly presented for the $F(T)$ class of teleparallel TRW spacetimes. We are primarily interested in investigating the $k \neq 0$ TRW models. After first studying the $k=0$ models and, in particular, writing their governing field equations in an appropriate form, we then study their late time stability with respect to perturbations in $k$ in both the cases of a vanishing and non-vanishing effective cosmological constant term. As an illustration we consider both quadratic $F(T)$ theories and power-law solutions.
