In this study, we explore the cosmological implications of a modified gravity theory characterized by the function \( f(R, \Sigma, T) \), where \( R \) is the Ricci scalar, \( \Sigma \) represents a geometric deformation term, and \( T \)…
This paper studies a generic fourth-order theory of gravity with Lagrangian density $f(R,R_c^2,R_m^2, \mathscr{L}_m)$. By considering explicit $R^2$ dependence and imposing the "coherence condition" $f_{R^2}\!=\!f_{R_m^2}\!=\!…
