Spacetime torsion as a possible remedy to major problems in gravity and
  cosmology
  We show that the Einstein-Cartan-Sciama-Kibble theory of gravity with torsion
not only extends general relativity to account for the intrinsic spin of
matter, but it may also eliminate major problems in gravitational physics and
answer major questions in cosmology. These problems and questions include: the
origin of the Universe, the existence of singularities in black holes, the
nature of inflation and dark energy, the origin of the matter-antimatter
asymmetry in the Universe, and the nature of dark matter.
