Einstein Gravity and Beyond: Aspects of Higher-Curvature Gravity and Black Holes
abstract: This thesis explores the different aspects of higher curvature gravity. The "membrane paradigm" of black holes in Einstein gravity is extended to black holes in f(R) gravity and it is shown that the higher curvature effects of f(R) gravity causes the membrane fluid to become non-...
