In particular, we are able to construct versions of those theories (with and without ordinary matter), in which the matter-dominated era makes a transition to the cosmic acceleration epoch. In several of the cases under consideration, matter dominance and the decelerationacceleration transition occur in the presence of matter only. The late-time acceleration epoch is described asymptotically by de Sitter space but may also correspond to an exact ΛCDM cosmology, having in both cases an effective equation of state parameter w close to -1. The one-loop effective action of modified Gauss-Bonnet gravity on the de Sitter background is evaluated and it is used to derive stability criteria for the ensuing de Sitter universe.}, pages = {086002--086002}, title = {String-inspired Gauss-Bonnet gravity reconstructed from the universe expansion history and yielding the transition from matter dominance to dark energy}, volume = {75}, year = {2007} }
