It is shown that the Kerr solution exists in the generalized hybrid metric-Palatini gravity theory and that for certain choices of the function $f(R,\mathcal R)$ that characterizes the theory, the Kerr solution can be stable against…

It is a very well established matter nowadays that many modified gravity models can offer a sound alternative to General Relativity for the description of the accelerated expansion of the universe. But it is also equally well known that no…
