We argue that the occurrence of late-time acceleration can conveniently be described by first-order general relativity covariantly coupled to fermions. Dark energy arises as a Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer condensate of fermions which forms in the early universe. At late times, the gap and chemical potential evolve to have an equation of state with effective negative pressure, thus naturally leading to acceleration.

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Torsion-induced fermion condensate produces hybrid inflation with axial-chemical-potential waterfall, Q-ball PBH seeds, and parity-violating signatures in Chern-Simons gravity.

  2. Torsion induced one-loop corrections to inflaton decay and the Stochastic gravitational waves

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Torsion-induced one-loop corrections can suppress the stochastic gravitational wave signal from inflaton decay by up to two orders of magnitude relative to tree-level predictions.
