Dust Static Cylindrically Symmetric Solutions in f(R) Gravity

This paper is devoted to investigate non-vacuum solutions of cylindrically symmetric spacetime in the context of metric f(R) gravity. We take dust matter to find energy density of the universe. In particular, we find two exact solutions, which correspond to two f(R) models in each case. The first solution provides constant curvature while the second solution corresponds to non-constant curvature. The functions of the Ricci scalar and energy densities are evaluated in each case.     

Plane Symmetric Solutions in f(R,T) Gravity

The main purpose of this paper is to investigate the exact solutions of plane symmetric spacetime in the context of f(R,T)gravity[Phys.Rev.D 84(2011)024020],where f(R,T)is an arbitrary function of Ricci scalar R and trace of the energy momentum tensor T.We explore the exact solutions for two different classes of f(R,T)models.The first class f(R,T)=R+2f(T)yields a solution which corresponds to Taub's metric while the second class f(R,T)=f_1(R)+f_2(T)provides two additional solutions which include the well known anti-deSitter spacetime.The energy densities and corresponding functions for f(R,T)models are evaluated in each case.

A Note on Plane Symmetric Solutions in f(R) Gravity

The static plane symmetric vacuum solutions (Sharif and Shamir in Mod. Phys. Lett. A 25:1281, 2010) for n+1 dimension are reported. For this purpose, the generalized field equations are solved using the assumption of constant scalar curvature in metric f(R) gravity.     

Non-Vacuum Plane Symmetric Solutions and their Energy Contents in f (R) Gravity

The exact vacuum solutions of static plane symmetric spacetimes in four, five, six and n-dimensions in metric approach of f (R) theory of gravity have already been found and are available in literature. In this paper, we extend the work done by Sharif and Farasat for the case of vacuum static plane symmetric solutions in f (R) theory of gravity to non-vacuum case. Two non-vacuum solutions have been determined by using constant Ricci scalar assumption. Moreover, for some specific choices of f (R) models, the energy distribution of these solutions has been explored by applying the generalized Landau-Lifshitz energy-momentum complex in the context of f (R) theory of gravity. In addition, we discuss the stability conditions for these solutions.     

Energy Bounds for Static Spherically Symmetric Spacetime in f(R,G) Gravity

The main purpose of this paper is to investigate energy bounds in the context of f(R, G) gravity. To meet this aim, we choose static spherically symmetric spacetime in f(R, G) gravity to develop the field equations. We select three different models of f(R, G) gravity, which are thoroughly discussed in the literature. Firstly, the inequalities are formulated using energy bounds and then viability of the considered models are checked respectively. Graphical analysis show that specific f(R, G) gravity models are satisfied under suitable values of model parameters. It is shown that in a certain case energy bounds are satisfied expect SEC, which supports the late time acceleration expansion of unverse.

Ricci and Matter Collineations of Locally Rotationally Symmetric Space-Times

A new method is presented for the determination of Ricci Collineations (RC) and Matter Collineations (MC) of a given spacetime, in the cases where the Ricci tensor and the energy momentum tensor are non-degenerate and have a similar form with the metric. This method reduces the problem of finding the RCs and the MCs to that of determining the KVs whereas at the same time uses already known results on the motions of the metric. We employ this method to determine all hypersurface homogeneous locally rotationally symmetric spacetimes, which admit proper RCs and MCs. We also give the corresponding collineation vectors. These results conclude a long due open problem, which has been considered many times partially in the literature.

Liouville Type Dilatonic Potential in Locally Rotationally Symmetric Bianchi I Model

Exact solutions are obtained for a special case of locally rotationally symmetric Bianchi I models consisting of a dilaton scalar field and a Liouville type dilatonic potential interacting with an electromagnetic field coupled with gravity, and the corresponding properties of the space-time are discussed.     

Baryogenesis in f(R,T) Gravity

We study gravitational baryogenesis in the context of f(R, T) gravity where the gravitational Lagrangian is given by a generic function of the Ricci scalar R and the trace of the stress-energy tensor T. We explore how this type of modified gravity is capable to shed light on the issue of baryon asymmetry in a successful manner. We consider various forms of baryogenesis interaction and discuss the effect of these interaction terms on the baryon to entropy ratio in this setup. We show that baryon asymmetry during the radiation era of the expanding universe can be non-zero in this framework. Then, we calculate the baryon to entropy ratio for some specific f(R, T) models and by using the observational data, we give some constraints on the parameter spaces of these models.

Wormhole Geometries in f(R,T) Gravity

We study wormhole solutions in the framework of f(R,T) gravity where R is the scalar curvature, and T is the trace of the stress-energy tensor of the matter. We have obtained the shape function of the wormhole by specifying an equation of state for the matter field and imposing the flaring out condition at the throat. We show that in this modified gravity scenario, the matter threading the wormhole may satisfy the energy conditions, so it is the effective stress-energy that is responsible for violation of the null energy condition.     

f(G,T) Gravity with Cylindrically Symmetric Relativistic Fluids

The aim of this paper is to examine the structure scalars with account of f(G, T) theory of gravity. We consider the cylindrically symmetric spacetime with dissipative anisotropic background. We have determined the structure scalars by orthogonally decomposing the Riemann curvature tensor and it is shown that these scalars are associated with fundamental properties of fluid. We further investigate the mass function along with the transport equation and discuss their role on the evolutionary stages of relativistic stellar systems. We have also analyzed these structure scalars for static fluid distributions and it is concluded that all possible solutions of field equations can be expressed through these scalars.
