Equilibrium and stability of relativistic stars in extended theories of
  gravity
  We study static, spherically symmetric equilibrium configurations in extended
theories of gravity (ETG) following the notation introduced by Capozziello et
{\it al}. We calculate the differential equations for the stellar structure in
such theories in a very generic form i.e., the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff
generalization for any ETG is introduced. Stability analysis is also
investigated with special focus on the particular example of scalar-tensor
gravity.
