Description
We offer a mathematical toolkit for the study of waves propagating on a background manifold with nonvanishing torsion. As an example, we briefly analyze the amplitude propagation of gravitational waves in an Einstein-Cartan-Sciamma-Kibble (ECSK) assuming a dark matter spin tensor sourcing for spacetime torsion at cosmological scales and assess whether a future detection by LISA is possible.
