We perform a phase space analysis of a non-minimally coupled modified gravity theory with the Lagrangian density of the form $\frac{1}{2} f_{1}(R)+[1+\lambda f_{2}(R)]{{\cal{L}}_{m}}$, where $f_1(R)$ and $f_2(R)$ are arbitrary functions of…

The large-scale structure of the Universe is thought to evolve by a process of gravitational amplification from low-amplitude Gaussian noise generated in the early Universe. The later, non-linear stages of gravitation-induced clustering…
