Variational Principles in Teleparallel Gravity Theories

We study the variational principle and derivation of the field equations for different classes of teleparallel gravity theories, using both their metric-affine and covariant tetrad formulations. These theories have in common that, in addition to the tetrad or metric, they employ a flat connection as...
