Dynamics of a homogeneous and isotropic space in pure cubic f(R) gravity

Abstract

We consider a possible ways of the dynamics of a homogeneous and isotropic space described by the FLRW metric in the framework of cubic f(R) gravity in the absence of matter. This article points an method for limiting the parameters of extended gravity models. We propose and develop a method for f(R) gravity models based on the dynamics of metrics for various model parameters in the simplest example. The influence of parameters and initial conditions on further dynamics are discussed. The parameters can be limited by 1) slow growth of space, 2) instability, 3) divergence with the inflationary scenario.
