This is a brief review of modified gravity cosmologies. Generically extensions of gravity action involve higher derivative terms, which can result in ghosts and instabilities. There are three ways to circumvent this: Chern-Simons terms,…
A fine tuned rainbow gravity describes both relativistic quantum particles and anti-particles alike. That is, the ratio $y=E/E_{P}$ in the rainbow functions $g_{_{0}}\left( y\right) $ and $% g_{_{1}}\left( y\right) $ should be fine tuned…

Even if the fundamental action of gravity is local, the corresponding quantum effective action, that includes the effect of quantum fluctuations, is a nonlocal object. These nonlocalities are well understood in the ultraviolet regime but…
