Dynamics of the homogeneous universe of the logarithmic f(R) model

The universe is a dynamical system. In this talk, a short introduction to the dynamical analysis will be given. Its applications to cosmology that have been studied in some references will be briefly discussed. Then this method will be put on the homogeneous universe of the logarithmic f(R) model. The solutions give an expanding universe as we expected and a contracting one as well.
