Conformal aspects of Palatini approach in Extended Theories of Gravity
Abstract The debate on the physical relevance of conformal transformations can be faced by taking the Palatini approach into account to gravitational theories. We 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 ...
متن کاملHybrid Metric-Palatini Gravity
Recently, the phenomenology of f(R) gravity has been scrutinized. This scrutiny has been motivated by the possibility to account for the self-accelerated cosmic expansion without invoking dark energy sources. Besides, this kind of modified gravity is capable of addressing the dynamics of several self-gravitating systems alternatively to the presence of dark matter. It has been established that ...

متن کاملPalatini Actions and Quantum Gravity Phenomenology
We show that an invariant an universal length scale can be consistently introduced in a generally covariant theory through the gravitational sector using the Palatini approach. The resulting theory is able to capture different aspects of quantum gravity phenomenology in a single framework. In particular, it is found that in this theory field excitations propagating with different energy-densiti...
متن کاملReexamination of polytropic spheres in Palatini fðRÞ gravity
We investigate spherically symmetric, static matter configurations with polytropic equation of state for a class of fðRÞmodels in Palatini formalism and show that the surface singularities recently reported in the literature are not physical in the case of Planck scale modified Lagrangians. In such cases, they are just an artifact of the idealized equation of state used. In fact, we show that f...
