Generalized curvature-matter couplings in modified gravity
In this work, we review a plethora of modified theories of gravity with generalized curvature-matter couplings. The explicit nonminimal couplings, for instance, between an arbitrary function of the scalar curvature $R$ and the Lagrangian density of ...

Matter density perturbations in modified gravity models with arbitrary coupling between matter and geometry [PDF]
We consider theories with an arbitrary coupling between matter and gravity and obtain the perturbation equation of matter on subhorizon scales. Also, we derive the effective gravitational constant $G_{eff}$ and two parameters $\Sigma$ and $\eta$, which ...

Energy Conditions in $f(R,T,R_{\mu\nu}T^{\mu\nu})$ Gravity
We discuss the validity of the energy conditions in a newly modified theory named as $f(R,T,R_{\mu\nu}T^{\mu\nu})$ gravity, where $R$ and $T$ represent the scalar curvature and trace of the energy-momentum tensor.

Revealing patterns of endemism in the transatlantic family Chelodesmidae (Polydesmida: Diplopoda)
Abstract With fossil records dating back to the Silurian/Late Ordovician, millipedes stand out as one of the earliest terrestrial animal groups. Their limited vagility and high endemism make them valuable tools for formulating and testing biogeographic hypotheses, including those related to macro‐vicariance events.

Recuperación del funcionamiento hidrológico de ecosistemas de páramo en Colombia
Los páramos son ecosistemas que se caracterizan por una alta humedad relativa, alta frecuencia de niebla y por tener una vegetación arbustiva y herbácea, adaptada a las condiciones de alta montaña. En condiciones naturales estos ecosistemas presentan una

Modified Gravity with a Non-minimal Gravitational Coupling to Matter
We consider modified theories of gravity with a direct coupling between matter and geometry, denoted by an arbitrary function in terms of the Ricci scalar.
