Classical, quantum and numerical aspects of modified theories of gravity by Beckering Vinckers, Ulrich Karoo

“…Lastly, we consider the application of numerical relativity techniques to f(R) gravity models. It is well-known that the Baumgarte-Shapiro-Shibata-Nakamura (BSSN) modification of the Arnowitt-Deser-Misner formulation of General Relativity is suitable for the construction of numerical relativity codes. …”

Universe phenomenology as understood from gravitational theories with non-vanishing torsion: cosmology and black holes by Beckering Vinckers, Ulrich Karoo

“…We then study these focusing conditions for three bi-parametric cosmological models. Finally, we turn our attention back to the Einstein-Cartan theory and derive the Arnowitt-DeserMisner formulation of this theory. …”
