Explore Einstein-Cartan gravity theory and its profound applications in particle physics and cosmology through this comprehensive conference talk delivered at ICBS2025. Delve into the mathematical foundations of Einstein-Cartan theory, which extends general relativity by incorporating torsion alongside curvature in spacetime geometry. Examine how this theoretical framework provides new insights into fundamental physics problems, including the unification of gravity with other forces and the resolution of cosmological puzzles. Discover the implications of torsion in spacetime for particle interactions, field equations, and the early universe's evolution. Learn about the potential connections between Einstein-Cartan gravity and modern particle physics phenomena, including fermion interactions and the role of spin in gravitational theory. Investigate how this extended gravitational framework addresses cosmological questions such as inflation, dark matter, and the universe's large-scale structure. Gain understanding of the mathematical tools and physical principles underlying this alternative approach to gravity theory and its experimental predictions that distinguish it from standard general relativity.
