Abstract
The asymptotic method of Belinskii, Khalatnikov and Lifshitz is applied to the study of the behavior near singularities of generic Bianchi IX cosmological models in the framework of the R2 theory of gravity. Three main kinds of asymptotic forms for the metric are obtained: a de Sitter geometry, a monotonic fall on a curvature singularity after a finite number of oscillations, an infinite sequence of regular oscillations. No chaos appears.
