Finite-time cosmological singularities and the possible fate of the Universe

J de Haro, S Nojiri, SD Odintsov, VK Oikonomou, S Pan - Physics Reports, 2023 - Elsevier
Singularities in any physical theory are either remarkable indicators of the unknown
underlying fundamental theory, or indicate a change in the description of the physical reality …

Modified gravity theories on a nutshell: Inflation, bounce and late-time evolution

S Nojiri, SD Odintsov, VK Oikonomou - Physics Reports, 2017 - Elsevier
We systematically review some standard issues and also the latest developments of
modified gravity in cosmology, emphasizing on inflation, bouncing cosmology and late-time …

Unified cosmic history in modified gravity: from F (R) theory to Lorentz non-invariant models

S Nojiri, SD Odintsov - Physics Reports, 2011 - Elsevier
The classical generalization of general relativity is considered as the gravitational alternative
for a unified description of the early-time inflation with late-time cosmic acceleration. The …

[HTML][HTML] f (R) theories

A De Felice, S Tsujikawa - Living Reviews in Relativity, 2010 - Springer
Over the past decade, f (R) theories have been extensively studied as one of the simplest

Modified gravity models of dark energy

S Tsujikawa - Lectures on cosmology: Accelerated Expansion of the …, 2010 - Springer
We review the recent progress for modified gravity models of dark energy–including f (R)

Wormholes in -gravity within the f(RT) formalism

PK Sahoo, P Moraes, P Sahoo - The European Physical Journal C, 2018 - Springer
We propose, as a novelty in the literature, the modeling of wormholes within a particular
case of f (R, T) gravity, namely f (R, T)= R+ α R^ 2+ λ T f (R, T)= R+ α R 2+ λ T, with R and T …

Neutron stars in the Starobinsky model

A Ganguly, R Gannouji, R Goswami, S Ray - Physical Review D, 2014 - APS
We study the structure of neutron stars in the f (R)= R+ α R 2 theory of gravity (the
Starobinsky model) in an exact and nonperturbative approach. In this model, apart from the …
