Dynamical stability of extended teleparallel gravity

We discuss modified teleparallel gravity with function $f(T,T_G)$ in the action, where function depend on two arguments: torsion scalar $T$ and analogue of Gauss-Bonnet invariant $T_G$. In contradistinction to usual teleparallel gravity $f(T)$, this theory contains higher derivative terms, which may produce different instabilities. We discuss Minkowski stability problem in such kind of theories and explicitly demonstrate that for stability must be $f_T(0,0)<0$, $f_{T_G{T}_G}>0$. We apply these restrictions for the few types of functions discussed by the early authors.
