## TL;DR

This paper proposes a gauge gravitation theory in Riemann-Cartan space-time that explains the accelerating universe and dark matter phenomena through vacuum torsion interactions, eliminating the need for dark matter.

## Contribution

It introduces a novel approach where vacuum torsion interacts with matter's angular momentum, providing an alternative explanation for dark matter effects.

## Key findings

- Vacuum torsion can produce additional gravitational attraction at astrophysical scales.
- The theory addresses cosmological singularity and dark energy problems.
- It offers a unified framework without dark matter particles.

## Abstract

The simplest gauge gravitation theory in Riemann-Cartan space-time leading to the solution of the problem of cosmological singularity and dark energy problem is investigated with purpose to solve the dark matter problem. It is shown that the interaction of the vacuum torsion field with proper angular moments of gravitating objects can lead to appearance at astrophysical scale (galaxies, galactic clusters) additional force of gravitational attraction, which in the frame of standard theory is connected with dark matter.
