The basics of teleparallel gravity and its extensions are reviewed with particular emphasis on the problem of Lorentz-breaking choice of connection in pure-tetrad versions of the theories. Various possible ways to covariantise such models are discussed. A by-product is a new form of $f(T)$ field equations.

Hyperbolicity analysis of the linearised 3+1 formulation in the Teleparallel Equivalent of General Relativity
The linearized 3+1 TEGR system has imaginary eigenvalues in its principal symbol but becomes strongly hyperbolic after gauge fixing isolated problematic sectors.

Teleparallel gravity from the principal bundle viewpoint
TEGR is argued to admit a gauge theory formulation on principal bundles with Poincaré or Lorentz structure groups, where the gauge group is the diffeomorphism group if the teleparallel connection is not treated as an ...
