In Cuzinatto et al. [Phys. Rev. D 93, 124034 (2016)], it has been demonstrated that theories of gravity in which the Lagrangian includes terms depending on the scalar curvature $R$ and its derivatives up to order $n$, i.e. $fleft(R, abla_{mu}R, abla_{mu_{1}} abla_{mu_{2}}R,dots, abla_{mu_{1}}dots abla_{mu_{n}}Rright)$ theories of gravity, are equivalent to scalar-multitensorial theories in the Jordan frame. In particular, in the metric and Palatini formalisms, this scalar-multitensorial equivalent scenario shows a structure that resembles that of the Brans-Dicke theories with a kinetic term for the scalar field with $omega_{0}=0$ or $omega_{0}=-3/2$, respectively. In the present work, the aforementioned analysis is extended to the Einstein frame. The conformal transformation of the metric characterizing the transformation from Jordans to Einsteins frame is responsible for decoupling the scalar field from the scalar curvature and also for introducing a usual kinetic term for the scalar field in the metric formalism. In the Palatini approach, this kinetic term is absent in the action. Concerning the other tensorial auxiliary fields, they appear in the theory through a generalized potential. As an example, the analysis of an extension of the Starobinsky model (with an extra term proportional to $ abla_{mu}R abla^{mu}R$) is performed and the fluid representation for the energy-momentum tensor is considered. In the metric formalism, the presence of the extra term causes the fluid to be an imperfect fluid with a heat flux contribution; on the other hand, in the Palatini formalism the effective energy-momentum tensor for the extended Starobinsky gravity is that of a perfect fluid type. Finally, it is also shown that the extra term in the Palatini formalism represents a dynamical field which is able to generate an inflationary regime without a graceful exit.

The equivalence between theories depending on the derivatives of $R$, i.e. $fleft( R, abla R,..., abla^{n}Rright) $, and scalar-multi-tensorial theories is verified. The analysis is done in both metric and Palatini formalisms. It is shown that $fleft
( R, abla R,..., abla^{n}Rright) $ theories are equivalent to scalar-multi-tensorial ones resembling Brans-Dicke theories with kinetic terms $omega_{0}=0$ and $omega_{0}= - frac{3}{2}$ for metric and Palatini formalisms respectively. This result is analogous to what happens for $f(R)$ theories. It is worthy emphasizing that the scalar-multi-tensorial theories obtained here differ from Brans-Dicke ones due to the presence of multiple tensorial fields absent in the last. Furthermore, sufficient conditions are established for $fleft( R, abla R,..., abla^{n}Rright) $ theories to be written as scalar-multi-tensorial theories. Finally, some examples are studied and the comparison of $fleft( R, abla R,..., abla^{n}Rright) $ theories to $fleft( R,Box R,...Box^{n}Rright) $ theories is performed.
An extension of the Starobinsky model is proposed. Besides the usual Starobinsky Lagrangian, a term proportional to the derivative of the scalar curvature, $ abla_{mu}R abla^{mu}R$, is considered. The analyzis is done in the Einstein frame with the i
ntroduction of a scalar field and a vector field. We show that inflation is attainable in our model, allowing for a graceful exit. We also build the cosmological perturbations and obtain the leading-order curvature power spectrum, scalar and tensor tilts and tensor-to-scalar ratio. The tensor and curvature power spectrums are compared to the most recent observations from BICEP2/Keck collaboration. We verify that the scalar-to-tensor rate $r$ can be expected to be up to three times the values predicted by Starobinsky model.
This paper analyses the cosmological consequences of a modified theory of gravity whose action integral is built from a linear combination of the Ricci scalar $R$ and a quadratic term in the covariant derivative of $R$. The resulting Friedmann equati
ons are of the fifth-order in the Hubble function. These equations are solved numerically for a flat space section geometry and pressureless matter. The cosmological parameters of the higher-order model are fit using SN Ia data and X-ray gas mass fraction in galaxy clusters. The best-fit present-day $t_{0}$ values for the deceleration parameter, jerk and snap are given. The coupling constant $beta$ of the model is not univocally determined by the data fit, but partially constrained by it. Density parameter $Omega_{m0}$ is also determined and shows weak correlation with the other parameters. The model allows for two possible future scenarios: there may be either a premature Big Rip or a Rebouncing event depending on the set of values in the space of parameters. The analysis towards the past performed with the best-fit parameters shows that the model is not able to accommodate a matter-dominated stage required to the formation of structure.
Slow-roll inflation is analyzed in the context of modified gravity within the Palatini formalism. As shown in the literature, inflation in this framework requires the presence of non-traceless matter, otherwise it does not occur just as a consequence
of the non-linear gravitational terms of the action. Nevertheless, by including a single scalar field that plays the role of the inflaton, slow-roll inflation can be performed in these theories, where the equations lead to an effective potential that modifies the dynamics. We obtain the general slow-roll parameters and analyze a simple model to illustrate the differences introduced by the gravitational terms under the Palatini approach, and the modifications on the spectral index and the tensor to scalar ratio predicted by the model.
We show that in the weak field limit the light deflection alone cannot distinguish between different $R + F[g(square)R]$ models of gravity, where $F$ and $g$ are arbitrary functions. This does not imply, however, that in all these theories an observe
r will see the same deflection angle. Owed to the need to calibrate the Newton constant, the deflection angle may be model-dependent after all necessary types of measurements are taken into account.
