f(R,ϕ)‎ and f(R)‎ Models : A Self-Similar Approach

الملخص EN

We study the f(R,ϕ) models and their particular case, the so-called f(R)-models under the self-similarity hypothesis.

In particular, we calculate the exact form that each quantity may take in order that field equations (FEs) admit self-similar solutions.

The methods employed allow us to obtain general results that are valid not only for the FRW metric, but also for all the Bianchi types as well as for the Kantowski-Sachs model (under the self-similarity hypothesis and the power-law hypothesis for the scale factors).
