Metric $f(R)$ gravity with dynamical dark energy as a paradigm for the Hubble Tension

We introduce a theoretical framework to interpret the Hubble tension, based on the combination of a metric $f(R)$ gravity with a dynamical dark energy contribution. The modified gravity provides the non-minimally coupled scalar field responsible for the proper scaling of the Hubble constant, in order to accommodate for the local SNIa pantheon+ data and Planck measurements. The dynamical dark energy source, which exhibits a phantom divide line separating the low red-shift quintessence regime ($-1更多
