Difference between Covariant derivative and F(R) gravity

Covariant derivative vs. F(R) gravity

In mathematics, the covariant derivative is a way of specifying a derivative along tangent vectors of a manifold. f(R) gravity is a type of modified gravity theory which generalizes Einstein's general relativity.

Similarities between Covariant derivative and F(R) gravity

Covariant derivative and F(R) gravity have 3 things in common (in Unionpedia): Connection (mathematics), General relativity, Metric tensor.

Connection (mathematics)

In geometry, the notion of a connection makes precise the idea of transporting data along a curve or family of curves in a parallel and consistent manner.

General relativity

General relativity (GR, also known as the general theory of relativity or GTR) is the geometric theory of gravitation published by Albert Einstein in 1915 and the current description of gravitation in modern physics.

Metric tensor

In the mathematical field of differential geometry, a metric tensor is a type of function which takes as input a pair of tangent vectors and at a point of a surface (or higher dimensional differentiable manifold) and produces a real number scalar in a way that generalizes many of the familiar properties of the dot product of vectors in Euclidean space.
