We demonstrate that the scalaron, a scalar degree of freedom, emerging from the $f(R)$ theory of gravity, can account for the observed dark matter (DM) abundance if its mass is around the MeV scale, to ensure its cosmological stability.…
The Starobinsky model of modified gravity suggested to explain dark energy may be also considered in the astrophysical context. Recently it has been pointed out that in contracting regions curvature oscillations around the GR value may lead…
$f(R)$ gravity models belong to an important class of modified gravity models where the late time cosmic accelerated expansion is considered as the manifestation of the large scale modification of the force of gravity. $f(R)$ gravity models…
We consider a scenario where the scalaron of $f({\cal R})$ models is related to the volume modulus of string compactifications leaving only one scalar degree of freedom at low energy. The coefficient of the leading curvature squared…
Universe heating in $R^2$-modified gravity is considered. The rates of particle production by the scalaron are calculated for different decay channels. Freezing of massive stable relics with the interaction strength typical for…
In this paper, we conduct a study on the scalar field obtained from $\mathit{f(R)}$ gravity via Weyl transformation of the spacetime metric $g_{\mu\nu}$ from the Jordan frame to the Einstein frame. The scalar field is obtained as a result…
The scalaron of the metric $f(R)$ gravity can constitute dark matter if its mass is in the range $4\,\text{meV} \lesssim m \lesssim 1\,\text{MeV}$. We give an overview of such $f (R)$ gravity theory minimally coupled to the Standard Model.…
We explore the scalar field obtained under the conformal transformation of the spacetime metric $g_{\mu\nu}$ from the Jordan frame to the Einstein frame in $f(R)$ gravity. This scalar field is the result of the modification in the…
Gravity takes care of both inflation and subsequent reheating in Starobinsky's R^2-model. The latter is due to inflaton gravitation decays dominated by scalar particle production. It is tempting to suggest that dark matter particles are…
The conventional Friedmann cosmology is known to be in tension with the existence of stable particles having interaction strength typical for supersymmetry and heavier than several TeV. A possible way to save life of such particles may be a…
We review our recent results on dark matter from Starobinsky supergravity. In this context, a natural candidate for Cold Dark Matter is the gravitino. On the other hand, assuming the supersymmetry broken at scales much higher than the…
We present a general description of the scalar field dark matter (SFDM) hypothesis in the cosmological context. The scenario of structure formation under such a hypothesis is based on Jeans instabilities of fluctuations of the scalar field.…
We study particle production in infrared-modified gravitational theories in the contemporary universe. It is shown that in astronomical systems with rising mass density, the curvature scalar may oscillate with very high frequency. These…
In $f(R)$ gravity, the scalaron -- a scalar degree of freedom arising from modification of General Relativity -- could account for all dark matter in the universe if its mass lies in the meV--MeV range. In this work, we revisit the…
We consider scalar perturbations of energy--density for a class of cosmological models where an early phase of accelerated expansion evolves, without any fine--tuning for graceful exit, towards the standard Friedman eras of observed…
The review is devoted to consideration of possible observational consequences of modified gravity theories, suggested for explanation of the contemporary accelerated expansion of the universe. The major attention is paid to F(R)-models. It…
We construct an $N=1$ supergravity action whose bosonic part contains an arbitrary function of the scalar curvature, the so-called $F(R)$ gravity. As in $R+R^2$ supergravity, it can be described in terms of two chiral superfields of…
In this paper we study cosmological perturbations with $f(R)$ gravity scalaron. We consider epoch of transition from early general relativity (GR) phase to late time non-GR phase of cosmogenic history for a viable $f(R)$ gravity Lagrangian…
A new cosmological scenario is proposed in which a light scalaron of $f (R)$ gravity plays the role of dark matter. In this scenario, the scalaron initially resides at the minimum of its effective potential while the electroweak symmetry is…
Now the hypothesis of existence of scalar fields of a various nature and energy density in the modern Universe is intensively explored. It can explain a nature of the dark (non- baryon) matter in the Universe and an existence of positive…
