We study and derive the energy conditions in generalized non-local gravity, which is the modified theory of general relativity (GR) obtained by adding a term $m^{2n-2}RBox^{-n}R$ to the Einstein-Hilbert action. Moreover, in order to get some insight on the meaning of the energy conditions, we illustrate the evolutions of four energy conditions with the model parameter $varepsilon$ for different $n$. By analysis we give the constraints on the model parameters $varepsilon$.

We construct a class of generalized non-local gravity (GNLG) model which is the modified theory of general relativity (GR) obtained by adding a term $m^{2n-2} RBox^{-n}R$ to the Einstein-Hilbert action. Concretely, we not only study the gravitational equation for the GNLG model by introducing auxiliary scalar fields, but also analyse the classical stability and examine the cosmological consequences of the model for different exponent $n$. We find that the half of the scalar fields are always ghost-like and the exponent $n$ must be taken even number for a stable GNLG model. Meanwhile, the model spontaneously generates three dominant phases of the evolution of the universe, and the equation of state parameters turn out to be phantom-like. Furthermore, we clarify in another way that exponent $n$ should be even numbers by discuss the spherically symmetric static solutions in Newtonian gauge. It is worth stressing that the results given by us can include ones in refs. [28, 34] as the special case of $n=2$.
$f(P)$ gravity is a novel extension of ECG in which the Ricci scalar in the action is replaced by a function of the curvature invariant $P$ which represents the contractions of the Riemann tensor at the cubic order cite{p}. The present work is concentrated on bounding some $f(P)$ gravity models using the concept of energy conditions where the functional forms of $f(P)$ are represented as textbf{a)} $f(P) = alpha sqrt{P}$, and textbf{b)} $f(P) = alpha exp (P)$, where $alpha$ is the sole model parameter. Energy conditions are interesting linear relationships between pressure and density and have been extensively employed to derive interesting results in Einsteins gravity, and are also an excellent tool to impose constraints on any cosmological model. To place the bounds, we ensured that the energy density must remain positive, the pressure must remain negative, and the EoS parameter must attain a value close to $-1$ to make sure that the bounds respect the accelerated expansion of the Universe and are also in harmony with the latest observational data. We report that for both the models, suitable parameter spaces exist which satisfy the aforementioned conditions and therefore posit the $f(P)$ theory of gravity to be a promising modified theory of gravitation.
A complete theory of gravity impels us to go beyond Einsteins General Relativity. One promising approach lies in a new class of teleparallel theory of gravity named $f(Q)$, where the nonmetricity $Q$ is responsible for the gravitational interaction. The important roles any of these alternative theories should obey are the energy condition constraints. Such constraints establish the compatibility of a given theory with the causal and geodesic structure of space-time. In this work, we present a complete test of energy conditions for $f(Q)$ gravity models. The energy conditions allowed us to fix our free parameters, restricting the families of $f(Q)$ models compatible with the accelerated expansion our Universe passes through. Our results straight the viability of $f(Q)$ theory, leading us close to the dawn of a complete theory for gravitation.
The recently proposed $f(Q, T)$ gravity (Xu et al. Eur. Phys. J. C textbf{79} (2019) 708) is an extension of the symmetric teleparallel gravity. The gravitational action $L$ is given by an arbitrary function $f$ of the non-metricity $Q$ and the trace of the matter-energy momentum tensor $T$. In this paper, we examined the essence of some well prompted forms of $f(Q,T)$ gravity models i.e. $f(Q,T)= mQ+bT$ and $f(Q,T)= m Q^{n+1}+b T$ where $m$, $b$, and $n$ are model parameters. We have used the proposed deceleration parameter, which predicts both decelerated and accelerated phases of the Universe, with the transition redshift by recent observations and obtains energy density ($rho$) and pressure ($p$) to study the various energy conditions for cosmological models. The equation of state parameter ($omegasimeq -1$) in the present model also supports the accelerating behavior of the Universe. In both, the models, the null, weak, and dominant energy conditions are obeyed with violating strong energy conditions as per the present accelerated expansion.
We suggest a Lorentz non-invariant generalization of the unimodular gravity theory, which is classically equivalent to general relativity with a locally inert (devoid of local degrees of freedom) perfect fluid having an equation of state with a constant parameter $w$. For the range of $w$ near $-1$ this dark fluid can play the role of dark energy, while for $w=0$ this dark dust admits spatial inhomogeneities and can be interpreted as dark matter. We discuss possible implications of this model in the cosmological initial conditions problem. In particular, this is the extension of known microcanonical density matrix predictions for the initial quantum state of the closed cosmology to the case of spatially open Universe, based on the imitation of the spatial curvature by the dark fluid density. We also briefly discuss quantization of this model necessarily involving the method of gauge systems with reducible constraints and the effect of this method on the treatment of recently suggested mechanism of vacuum energy sequestering.
