We re-investigate how generic off-diagonal cosmological solutions depending, in general, on all spacetime coordinates can be constructed in massive and f-modified gravity using the anholonomic frame deformation method. There are constructed…

We construct a Born-Infeld-type $f(R,{\cal G})$ modification of gravity, where ${\cal G}$ is the Gauss-Bonnet term, by embedding Born-Infeld electrodynamics in a five-dimensional pure modified gravity. This method leads to the…

We briefly review the current status of nonlocal gravity (NLG), which is a classical nonlocal generalization of Einstein's theory of gravitation based on a certain analogy with the nonlocal electrodynamics of media. Nonlocal gravity thus…
