An extension of unimodular Einsteinian gravity in the context of $F(R)$ gravities is used to construct a class of anisotropic evolution scenarios. In unimodular GR the determinant of the metric is constrained to be a fixed number or a…

Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity coupled to a dynamical dilaton is examined from the viewpoint of Einstein's equivalence principle. We point out that the usual frame change that applies to the action without curvature correction does not cure…
