k-essence f(R) gravity inflation

In this work we study a modified version of f(R) gravity in which higher order kinetic terms of a scalar field are added in the action of vacuum f(R) gravity. This type of theory is a type of k-essence f(R) gravity, and it belongs to the general class of f(R,ϕ,X) theories of gravity, where ϕ is a sc...
