Exact black hole solutions with semi-symmetric vectorial torsion

Abstract Semi-Symmetric Metric Gravity extends general relativity by introducing a semi-symmetric connection with vectorial torsion. The modified field equations contain extra contributions from the torsion vector and its derivatives. Assuming a purely radial torsion vector consistent with spherical symmetry, we derive two exact vacuum solutions. The metric depends on two integration constants, defining the Schwarzschild radius and a new cosmological-type length scale. Classical Solar System tests, including perihelion precession, light deflection, and radar echo delay, are used to constrain the new length scale and the associated deviations from general relativity. The thermodynamic properties of the resulting black hole solutions are investigated, and it is shown that the vector perturbation sector is linearly stable.

Abstract

Abstract Semi-Symmetric Metric Gravity extends general relativity by introducing a semi-symmetric connection with vectorial torsion. The modified field equations contain extra contributions from the torsion vector and its derivatives. Assuming a purely radial torsion vector consistent with spherical symmetry, we derive two exact vacuum solutions. The metric depends on two integration constants, defining the Schwarzschild radius and a new cosmological-type length scale. Classical Solar System tests, including perihelion precession, light deflection, and radar echo delay, are used to constrain the new length scale and the associated deviations from general relativity. The thermodynamic properties of the resulting black hole solutions are investigated, and it is shown that the vector perturbation sector is linearly stable.
