Abstract
Using the singularity analysis, we investigate the integrability properties and existence of analytic solutions in $f\left( R\right)$-cosmology. Specifically, for some power-law $f\left( R\right) $-theories of particular interest, we apply the ARS algorithm to prove if the field equations possess the Painlevé property. Constraints for the free parameters of the power-law models are derived, and new analytic solutions are derived, expressed in terms of Laurent expansions.
