Abstract:

We review the accelerating cosmology from modified gravity, paying special attention to F(R) gravity. The unification of inflation with dark energy era is presented. Bouncing cosmology from F(R) gravity is discussed in detail, as well as singular inflation. Mimetic F(R) gravity and unimodular F(R) gravity cosmologies are discussed.
