Legendre scalarization in gravity and cosmology
Abstract We propose a new formulation of f(R) gravity, dubbed scalarized f(R) gravity, in which the Legendre transform is included as a dynamical term. This leads to a theory with second-order field equations that describes general relativity with a self-interacting scalar field, without requiring t...
