When describing gravity at high energies it is natural to introduce terms quadratic in the curvature as first corrections to the Einstein-Hilbert action. Static, spherically symmetric classical solutions are studied in the case of the…

We have developed a method to study the effects of a perturbation to the motion of a test point--like object in a Schwarzschild spacetime. Such a method is the extension of the Lagrangian planetary equations of classical celestial mechanics…

We show that it is possible to go beyond the simple kinematical aspects of the analog models of gravity. We exhibit the form of the Lagrangian that describes the dynamics of a self-interacting field $ \phi $ as an interaction between $ \phi…

We investigate a modified gravity framework where the geometric Einstein--Hilbert sector remains untouched while the matter Lagrangian is weighted by a nontrivial function $\phi(T)$ of the energy--momentum trace. Unlike $f(R,T)$ or…
