On the junction conditions in $f(R)$-gravity with torsion

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology 2018-04-20 v3

Abstract

Junction conditions are discussed within the framework of f(R)f(R)-gravity with torsion. After deriving general junction conditions, the cases of coupling to a Dirac field and a spin fluid are explicitly dealt with. The main differences with respect to Einstein--Cartan--Sciama--Kibble theory (f(R)=R)\left(f(R)=R\right) are outlined.
