Coincidence Problem in $f(R)$ Gravity Models

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2011-03-07 v1

Abstract

The f(R)f(R) gravity models formulated in Einstein conformal frame are equivalent to Einstein gravity together with a minimally coupled scalar field. The scalar field couples with the matter sector and the coupling term is given by the conformal factor. We use this interacting model to derive a necessary condition for alleviating the coincidence problem.
