A modified theory of gravity with the function $F(R) = (1-\sqrt{1-2\lambda R})/\lambda$ is suggested and analyzed. At small value of the parameter $\lambda$ introduced the action is converted into Einstein$-$Hilbert action. The theory is…

General relativity allows for inhomogeneous and anisotropic universes with finite action. By contrast, in quadratic gravity such solutions obtain infinite action and are thus eliminated. What remains are homogeneous and isotropic solutions…
Simple generic extensions of isotropic Durgapal--Fuloria stars to the anisotropic domain are presented. These anisotropic solutions are obtained by guided minimal deformations over a self gravitating isotropic system. When the isotropic and…
