Modifying General Relativity: is it worth it?

Diego Sáez Gómez

Abstract
In this talk I will review some models of modified gravities and their features from a classical point of view. Over the last years, modified gravities have drawn much attention within the cosmological context since they can reproduce with great accuracy the late-time acceleration and even the inflationary epoch. I will show the pros and cons of some of the main proposals.
