Energy conditions and gravitational baryogenesis in $f(R,\mathcal{R})$ gravity

Abstract

In this work, first we examine the energy conditions in the context of the generalized metric-Palatini hybrid gravity, known as $f(R,\mathcal{R})$ gravity. We show that for the proposed model in this study, {\it i.e.} $f(R,\mathcal{R})=R+\alpha {\mathcal{R}}^n$, one of the four fundamental energy conditions, specifically the strong energy condition, does not hold for some values of $n$. Therefore, it seems that hybrid gravity can provide a model for the accelerated expansion of the universe. In continuation of completing our study in this work, we try to analyze the impact of hybrid metric-Palatini gravity on the gravitational baryogenesis process. The hybrid metric-Palatini model combines two gravitational theories that allow for a more detailed examination of the behavior of space-time and its interaction with matter. This combination is critical in the early radiation-dominant universe, where unusual gravitational effects may play a key role in generating baryonic asymmetry and the production of baryons and anti-baryons.
