In this paper, we consider a theory of gravity with a metric-dependent torsion namely the $F(R,T)$ gravity, where $R$ is the curvature scalar and $T$ is the torsion scalar. We study a geometric root of such theory. In particular we give the…
Accelerating cosmological models are constructed in a modified gravity theory dubbed as $f(R,T)$ gravity at the backdrop of an anisotropic Bianchi type-III universe. $f(R,T)$ is a function of the Ricci scalar $R$ and the trace $T$ of the…
The role of torsion in f(R) gravity is considered in the framework of metric-affine formalism. We discuss the field equations in empty space and in presence of perfect fluid matter taking into account the analogy with the Palatini…
I examine how two specific examples of modified gravity explanations of cosmic acceleration help us understand some general problems confronting cosmological tests of gravity: how do we distinguish modified gravity from dark energy if they…
