We discuss two aspects of f(R) theories of gravity in metric formalism. We first study the reasons to introduce a scalar-tensor representation for these theories and the behavior of this representation in the limit to General Relativity,…
In this article, we investigate scalar field cosmology in the coincident $f(Q)$ gravity formalism. We calculate the motion equations of $f(Q)$ gravity under the flat Friedmann-Lema\^{i}tre-Robertson-Walker background in the presence of a…
Unlike crushing singularities, the so-called Type IV finite-time singularity offers the possibility that the Universe passes smoothly through it, without any catastrophic effects. Then the question is if the effects of a Type IV singularity…
In this work we study the cosmology of the general f(T) gravity theory. We express the modified Einstein equations using covariant quantities, and derive the gauge-invariant perturbation equations in covariant form. We consider a specific…

This article presents cosmological models that arise in a subclass of $f(R,T)=f(R)+f(T)$ gravity models, with different $f(R)$ functions and fixed $T$-dependence. That is, the gravitational lagrangian is considered as $f(R,T)=f(R)+\lambda…
We consider new models of dark energy with finite time future singularities, by introducing the pressure density as a function of the scale factor. This approach gives acceptable phenomenological models of dark energy, practically…
Using an approach that treats the Ricci scalar itself as a degree of freedom, we analyze the cosmological evolution within an f(R) model that has been proposed recently (exponential gravity) and that can be viable for explaining the…
The $f(T)$ gravity is one of the extensions of teleparallel equivalent of general relativity, in which more general functions of the torsion scalar $T$ can be described. With the proposed functional form of $f(T) = \alpha T - \beta u^{-n} +…

In this paper we explore $f(T, \mathcal{T})$, where $T$ and $\mathcal{T}$ denote the torsion scalar and the trace of the energy-momentum tensor respectively. We impose the covariant conservation to the energy-momentum tensor and obtain a…
We study the $f(R,T)$ cosmological models under the self-similarity hypothesis. We determine the exact form that each physical and geometrical quantity may take in order that the Field Equations (FE) admit exact self-similar solutions…
We investigate the cosmological reconstruction in modified f(R,T) gravity, where R is the Ricci scalar and T the trace of the stress-energy tensor. Special attention is attached to the case in which the function f is given by f (R, T) = f1…
Singularities in any physical theory are either remarkable indicators of the unknown underlying fundamental theory, or indicate a change in the description of the physical reality. In General Relativity there are three fundamental kinds of…

We investigate which Jordan frame $F(R)$ gravity can describe a Type IV singular bouncing cosmological evolution, with special emphasis given near the point at which the Type IV singularity occurs. The cosmological bounce is chosen in such…
