Anisotropic higher derivative gravity and inflationary universe [PDF]

Phys.Rev. D74 (2006) 043522, 2006
Stability analysis of the Kantowski-Sachs type universe in pure higher derivative gravity theory is studied in details. The non-redundant generalized Friedmann equation of the system is derived by introducing a reduced one dimensional generalized KS type action. This method greatly reduces the labor in deriving field equations of any complicate models.
