Comment on `The Classical Limit of Teleparallel Gravity'

Abstract

We critically discuss the claims of a recent article regarding the Newtonian limit of the teleparallel equivalent of general relativity (TEGR) in pure-tetrad formulation (arXiv:2406.17594). In particular, we refute this article's purported main result that if a regular Newtonian limit exists, the torsion of the limiting derivative operator (i.e., connection) necessarily vanishes.
