Abstract

The curvature singularity problem in f(R)f(R) dark energy models poses a significant challenge to their viability as alternatives to the Λ\LambdaCDM paradigm. In this work, we investigate the possibility of resolving this issue by incorporating higher-order corrections that are compatible with the inflationary phase. We analyze the effects of adding R2R^2, Rm+2m+1R^{\frac{m+2}{m+1}} and α\alpha-attractor representation in f(R)f(R) gravity terms to types of dark energy f(R)f(R) models, focusing on their ability to prevent singularities in high-density environments. Our results demonstrate that these corrections can effectively stabilize the models, ensuring their consistency across both inflationary and late-time cosmological scales.
