contents A cosmologically viable hypergeometric model in the modified gravity theory $f(R)$ is found from the need for asintoticity towards $Λ$CDM, the existence of an inflection point in the $f(R)$ curve, and the conditions of viability given by the phase space curves $(m, r)$, where $m$ and $r$ are characteristic functions of the model. To analyze the constraints associated with the viability requirements, the models were expressed in terms of a dimensionless variable, i.e. $R\to x$ and $f(R)\to y(x)=x+h(x)+λ$, where $h(x)$ represents the deviation of the model from General Relativity. Using the geometric properties imposed by the inflection point, differential equations were constructed to relate $h'(x)$ and $h''(x)$, and the solutions found were Starobinsky (2007) and Hu-Sawicki type models, nonetheless, it was found that these differential equations are particular cases of a hypergeometric differential equation, so that these models can be obtained from a general hypergeometric model. The parameter domains of this model were analyzed to make the model viable.

A cosmologically viable hypergeometric model in the modified gravity theory $f(R)$ is found from the need for asintoticity towards $Λ$CDM, the existence of an inflection point in the $f(R)$ curve, and the conditions of viability given by the phase space curves $(m, r)$, where $m$ and $r$ are characteristic functions of the model. To analyze the constraints associated with the viability requirements, the models were expressed in terms of a dimensionless variable, i.e. $R\to x$ and $f(R)\to y(x)=x+h(x)+λ$, where $h(x)$ represents the deviation of the model from General Relativity.
