Conformal aspects of the Palatini approach in Extended Theories of Gravity

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that conformal transformations are not only a mathematical tool to disentangle gravitational and matter degrees of freedom (passing from the Jordan frame to the Einstein frame) but they acquire a physical meaning considering the bi-metric structure of Palatini approach which allows to distinguish between spacetime structure and geodesic structure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cosmology of hybrid metric-Palatini f(X)-gravity

TL;DR: In this paper, a new class of modified theories of gravity, consisting of the superposition of the metric Einstein-Hilbert Lagrangian with an f(R) term constructed a la Palatini was proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Noether symmetry approach in phantom quintessence cosmology

TL;DR: In this article, the Noether Symmetry Approach is used to obtain general exact solutions for the cosmological equations. This result is achieved by the quintessential (phantom) potential determined by the existence of the symmetry itself.
Journal ArticleDOI

Relation between the potential and nonminimal coupling in inflationary cosmology

TL;DR: In the context of nonminimally coupled theories of gravity, the existence of Noether symmetries in pointlike Friedman- Robertson-Walker (FRW) Lagrangians allows one to exactly integrate the dynamics.
Journal ArticleDOI

f(R) gravity with torsion: the metric-affine approach

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of torsion in f(R) gravity is considered in the framework of metric-affine formalism, taking into account the analogy with the Palatini formalism.
