(2+1)-dimensional f(R) gravity solutions via Hojman symmetry

In this paper, we use the Hojman symmetry approach to find new $(2+1)$-dimensional $f(R)$ gravity solutions, in comparison to Noether symmetry approach. In the special case of Hojman symmetry vector $X=R$, we recover $(2+1)$-dimensional BTZ black hole and generalized $(2+1)$-dimensional BTZ black hole solutions, obtained by Noether symmetry approach, and the interesting point is that the cosmological constant is appeared as the direct manifestation of Hojman symmetry.
