Static spherically symmetric solutions in F(R) gravity

A Lagrangian derivation of the Equations of Motion (EOM) for static spherically symmetric metrics in F(R) modified gravity is presented. For a large class of metrics, our approach permits one to reduce the EOM to a single equation and we show how it is possible to construct exact solutions in F(R)-gravity. All known exact solutions are recovered. We also exhibit a new non-trivial solution with non-constant Ricci scalar.
