A review of the new of the problem of dark energy using modified gravity approach is considered. An explanation of the difficulties facing modern cosmology is given and different approaches are presented. We show why some models of gravity may suffer of instabilities and how some are inconsistent with observations.

Using dynamical system analysis, we explore the cosmology of theories of order up to eight order of the form $f(R, Box R)$. The phase space of these cosmology reveals that higher-order terms can have a dramatic influence on the evolution of the cosmo logy, avoiding the onset of finite time singularities. We also confirm and extend some of results which were obtained in the past for this class of theories.
The recent article entitled Cosmological inviability of $f(R,T)$ gravity [Phys. Rev. D 95 (2017) 123536], by H. Velten and T.R.P. Caram^es, claims that the reference A transition from a decelerated to an accelerated phase of the universe expansion fr om the simplest non-trivial polynomial function of T in the f(R,T) formalism by P.H.R.S. Moraes, G. Ribeiro and R.A.C. Correa [Astrophys. Space Sci. 361 (2016) 227] has problematic points concerning its mathematical approach and observable consequences. Velten and Caram^es argue that the equation of the scale factor evolution in time in the $f(R,T)=R+alpha T+beta T^{2}$ cosmology was erroneously calculated. One crucial consequence of the supposed corrected version of such an equation, presented by the authors in [Phys. Rev. D 95 (2017) 123536], would be the absence of the transition from a decelerated to an accelerated phase of the expansion of the universe, an outcome originally predicted by Moraes, Ribeiro and Correa. We show that the above claim is incorrect and that there are no inconsistencies with the results by Moraes, Ribeiro and Correa in the referred work. In particular, we show that Velten and Caram^es have incorrectly performed their calculations, invalidating all their mathematical and physical criticism regarding the article by Moraes, Ribeiro and Correa. In addition, we quote that the solutions obtained by Velten and Caram^es are unfeasible in view of their mathematical misunderstanding.
The article presents modeling of inflationary scenarios for the first time in the $f(R,T)$ theory of gravity. We assume the $f(R,T)$ functional from to be $R + eta T$, where $R$ denotes the Ricci scalar, $T$ the trace of the energy-momentum tensor an d $eta$ the model parameter (constant). We first investigated an inflationary scenario where the inflation is driven purely due to geometric effects outside of GR. We found the inflation observables to be independent of the number of e-foldings in this setup. The computed value of the spectral index is consistent with latest Planck 2018 dataset while the scalar to tensor ratio is a bit higher. We then proceeded to analyze the behavior of an inflation driven by $f(R,T)$ gravity coupled with a real scalar field. By taking the slow-roll approximation, we generated interesting scenarios where a Klein Gordon potential leads to observationally consistent inflation observables. Our results makes it clear-cut that in addition to the Ricci scalar and scalar fields, the trace of energy momentum tensor also play a major role in driving inflationary scenarios.

We investigate whether the equivalence theorem in f(R)-type gravity is valid also in quantum theory. It is shown that, if the canonical quantization is assumed, equivalence does not hold in quantum theory.
In gravity theories derived from a f(R) Lagrangian, matter is usually supposed to be minimally coupled to the metric, which hence defines a ``Jordan frame. However, since the field equations are fourth order, gravity possesses an extra degree of free dom on top of the standard graviton, as is manifest from its equivalent description in the conformally related, Einstein, frame. We introduce explicitly this extra scalar degree of freedom in the action and couple it to matter, so that the original metric no longer defines a Jordan frame. This ``detuning puts f(R) gravity into a wider class of scalar--tensor theories. We argue that a ``chameleon-like detuning tracing the background matter density may provide purely gravitational models which account for the present acceleration of the universe and evade local gravity constraints.
