We generalize the $f(R)$ type gravity models by assuming that the gravitational Lagrangian is given by an arbitrary function of the Ricci scalar $R$ and of the matter Lagrangian $L_m$. We obtain the gravitational field equations in the…

We investigate the modified $F(R)$ gravity theory with the function $F(R) = (1-\sqrt{1-2\lambda R-\sigma (\lambda R)^2})/\lambda$. The action is converted into Einstein$-$Hilbert action at small values of $\lambda$ and $\sigma$. The local…

Modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND) is an empirically motivated modification of Newtonian gravity or inertia suggested by Milgrom as an alternative to cosmic dark matter. The basic idea is that at accelerations below a0 ~ 10^{-8} cm/s^2 ~…
