In this paper, we consider a cosmological model in $ f(R, G) $ gravity in a flat space-time, where $ R $ is the Ricci scalar and $ G $ is the Gauss-Bonnet invariant. The function $ f(R, G) $ is taken as a linear combination of $ R $ and an…
Among many alternative gravitational theories to General Relativity (GR), $f(R,T)$ gravity (where $R$ is the Ricci scalar and $T$ the trace of the energy-momentum tensor) has been widely studied recently. By adding a matter contribution to…
We find possible cosmological models of the Polynomial Affine Gravity described by connections that are either compatible or not with a metric. When possible, we compare them with those of General Relativity. We show that the set of…
The cosmological phenomenology of gravity is typically studied in two limits: relativistic perturbation theory (on large scales) and Newtonian gravity (required for smaller, non-linear, scales). Traditional approaches to model-independent…

This paper is a continuation of the papers [gr-qc/9409010, gr-qc/9505034]. A revision of the Einstein equation shows that its dynamic incompleteness, contrary to a popular opinion, cannot be circumvented by so-called coordinate conditions.…
We study a rotating and expanding, Godel type metric, originally considered by Korotkii and Obukhov, showing that, in the limit of large times and nearby distances, it reduces to the open metric of Friedmann. In the epochs when radiation or…
