Description
The equivalent formulations of gravity will be introduced as General relativity (GR), Teleparallel Equivalent of General Relativity (TEGR), Symmetric Teleparallel Equivalent of General Relativity (STEGR) with a basis toward teleparallel gravity. Mathematical models of theses theories will be introduced with a emphasis on physical differences and mathematical differences. A brief section on the modified theories of f(R), f(T) and f(Q) will be mentioned as a reason of the existence of the equivalent formulations with some thesis results to be shown. The talk is aimed at a senior undergraduate or graduate level for those who have a basic understanding of general relativity
