We examine the question as to whether the Palatini f(R) gravity theories permit space-times in which the causality is violated. We show that every perfect-fluid G\"{o}del-type solution of Palatini f(R) gravity with density $\rho$ and…
The issue of causality in $f(T)$ gravity is investigated by examining the possibility of existence of the closed timelike curves in the G\"{o}del-type metric. By assuming a perfect fluid as the matter source, we find that the fluid must…
There is ongoing interest in the nonmetricity formulation of gravity. The nonlinear extension of the theory, called $f(Q)$ gravity, has recently been proposed and offers a promising avenue for addressing some of the long-standing challenges…
In this paper, $f(R,\lm, T)$ gravity is considered. It is a generalization of the theories $f(R,T)$ and $f(R, \lm)$. This modified theory of gravity exhibits strong geometry-matter coupling. The problem of causality and its violation is…
We examine the question as to whether the f(R) gravity theories, in both metric and in Palatini formalisms, permit space-times in which the causality is violated. We show that the field equations of these f(R) gravity theories admit…
In this paper, $f(R,T,R_{\mu\nu} T^{\mu\nu}$) gravity is considered. It is a modified theory of gravity that exhibits a strong coupling of gravitational and matter fields. Therefore, if gravity is governed by this model a number of issues…
The $k$-essence modified $f(R)$ gravity model, i.e., $f(R,\phi,X)$ theory is studied. The question of violation of causality, in the framework of G\"{o}del-type universes, is investigated in this gravitational model. Causal and non-causal…
[Abridged] In its standard formulation, the $f(T)$ field equations are not invariant under local Lorentz transformations, and thus the theory does not inherit the causal structure of special relativity. A locally Lorentz covariant $f(T)$…
In this paper, we deal with the $f(R,Q)$ gravity whose action depends, besides of the scalar curvature $R$, on the higher-derivative invariant $Q=R_{\mu\nu}R^{\mu\nu}$. In order to compare this theory with the usual General Relativity (GR),…
In this work, we scrutinize the consistency of spacetime homogeneous G\"{o}del-type metrics within $f(R,Q,P)$ theories of gravity for well-motivated matter sources. As it is well known, such geometries allow for causality violation. We…
[Abridged] If gravitation is to be described by a hybrid metric-Palatini $f(\mathcal{R})$ gravity theory there are a number of issues that ought to be examined in its context, including the question as to whether its equations allow…
A modified gravitational model whose action is given by an arbitrary function of the Ricci scalar, the matter Lagrangian density, a scalar field, and its kinetic term is investigated as an extension of the gravitational sector including an…
In this paper, we will examine the problem of violation of causality in $f(R,T)$ modified gravity, where $R$ is the Ricci scalar and $T$ is the trace of the energy-momentum tensor $T_{\mu\nu}$. We investigate the causality problem in two…
In this work, the classical Godel solution from general relativity is extended into the framework of modified gravity theories based on non-metricity $Q$ and the trace of the energy-momentum tensor $T$ in the context of $f(Q,T)$ gravity.…
The Palatini $f(R,T)$ gravity theory is considered. The standard Einstein-Hilbert action is replaced by an arbitrary function of the Ricci scalar $R$ and of the trace $T$ of the energy-momentum tensor. In the Palatini approach, the Ricci…
In this paper, a modification of general relativity is considered. It consists of generalizing the Lagrangian of matter in a non-linear way, that is, replacing the curvature scalar $R$ by a function $f(R,T_{\mu\nu} T^{\mu\nu} )$, where…
Nonlocal gravity is a promising super-renormalizable or finite quantum gravity theory consistent with unitarity. In this paper, we focus on the classical equations of motion and explicitly show that a particular subclass of G\"{o}del-type…
In this paper, the G\"{o}del-type universes are examined within the framework of unimodular gravity. Since the existence of G\"{o}del solutions is intrinsically related to the presence of a cosmological constant in general relativity, one…
In the Rastall gravity a non-minimal coupling between geometry and matter fields is considered. Then the usual energy-momentum tensor conservation law is not valid. Here a Lagrangian formalism is proposed to the Rastall theory of gravity.…
In this paper, the G\"{o}del-type solutions within the k-essence theory are investigated. The consistency of field equations, causality violation and existence of closed timelike curves are studied. The conditions for existence of G\"{o}del…
