Collapse in f(R) gravity and the method of R matching

Abstract Collapsing solutions in f(R) gravity are restricted due to junction conditions that demand continuity of the Ricci scalar and its normal derivative across the time-like collapsing hypersurface. These are obtained via the method of R-matching, which is ubiquitous in f(R) collapse scenarios....
