Signature Change in $f(R, T_φ)$ Theory

Serkan Doruk Hazinedar, Yaghoub Heydarzade

Abstract

We investigate a simple $f(R, T_φ)$ gravity model coupled to a scalar field and demonstrate that the theory admits classical degenerate metric solutions, analogous to those known in general relativity. In particular, we identify a class of solutions that exhibits a smooth transition from a Euclidean to a Lorentzian domain, thus yielding a classical dynamical realization of signature change.
