We study spherically symmetric static empty space solutions in $R+\varepsilon/R$ model of $f(R)$ gravity. We show that the Schwarzschild metric is an exact solution of the resulted field equations and consequently there are general…

We formulate $f(Q,C)$ gravity and cosmology. Such a construction is based on the symmetric teleparallel geometry, but apart form the non-metricity scalar $Q$ we incorporate in the Lagrangian the boundary term $C$ of its difference form the…

We use recent observations from solar system orbital motions in order to constrain f(T) gravity. In particular, imposing a quadratic f(T) correction to the linear-in-T form, which is a good approximation for every realistic case, we extract…

We show that in the $f(Q)$ gravity with a non-metricity scalar $Q$, the curvatures in Einstein's gravity, that is, the Riemann curvature constructed from the standard Levi-Civita connection, could not be excluded or naturally appear. The…

We investigate the f(R) theory of gravity with broken diffeomorphism due to the change of the coefficient in front of the total divergence term in the (3+1)-decomposition of the scalar curvature. We perform the canonical analysis of this…

Disformal theories of gravity are scalar-tensor theories where the scalar couples derivatively to matter via the Jordan frame metric. These models have recently attracted interest in the cosmological context since they admit accelerating…

The paper presents late time cosmology in $f(Q,T)$ gravity where the dark energy is purely geometric in nature. We start by employing a well motivated $f(Q,T)$ gravity model, $f(Q,T)=mQ^{n}+bT$ where $m,n$ and $b$ are model parameters.…

The vanishing affine connections have been used solely while adopting the modified $f(Q)$ gravity theory to the cosmology. Consequently, researchers could not get beyond what is already known in $f(T)$ theory earlier. To alleviate this…

General Relativity (GR) is not the only way gravity can be geometrised. Instead of curvature, the Teleparallel Theory attributes gravity to torsion $T$, which is related to the antysimmetric part of connection, and the Symmetric…
