Beyond the cosmological standard model

A Joyce, B Jain, J Khoury, M Trodden - Physics Reports, 2015 - Elsevier
After a decade and a half of research motivated by the accelerating universe, theory and
experiment have reached a certain level of maturity. The development of theoretical models …

[HTML][HTML] Massive gravity

C de Rham - Living reviews in relativity, 2014 - Springer
We review recent progress in massive gravity. We start by showing how different theories of
massive gravity emerge from a higher-dimensional theory of general relativity, leading to the …

Dark energy in light of multi-messenger gravitational-wave astronomy

JM Ezquiaga, M Zumalacárregui - Frontiers in Astronomy and Space …, 2018 - frontiersin.org
Gravitational waves (GWs) provide a new tool to probe the nature of dark energy (DE) and
the fundamental properties of gravity. We review the different ways in which GWs can be …

A critical review of classical bouncing cosmologies

D Battefeld, P Peter - Physics Reports, 2015 - Elsevier
Given the proliferation of bouncing models in recent years, we gather and critically assess
these proposals in a comprehensive review. The PLANCK data shows an unmistakably red …

Recent developments in bimetric theory

A Schmidt-May, M von Strauss - Journal of Physics A …, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
This review is dedicated to recent progress in the field of classical, interacting, massive spin-
2 theories, with a focus on ghost-free bimetric theory. We will outline its history and its …

Universal resistivity from holographic massive gravity

M Blake, D Tong - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields, Gravitation, and …, 2013 - APS
Massive gravity provides a holographic model for theories exhibiting momentum
dissipation.<? format?> We provide an analytic expression for the DC conductivity. The …

Anisotropic stress as a signature of nonstandard propagation of gravitational waves

ID Saltas, I Sawicki, L Amendola, M Kunz - Physical Review Letters, 2014 - APS
We make precise the heretofore ambiguous statement that anisotropic stress is a sign of a
modification of gravity. We show that in cosmological solutions of very general classes of …

On couplings to matter in massive (bi-) gravity

C de Rham, L Heisenberg… - Classical and Quantum …, 2015 - iopscience.iop.org
We investigate the coupling to matter in ghost-free massive (bi-) gravity. When species in the
matter sector couple covariantly to only one metric, we show that at one-loop these …

[HTML][HTML] Bimetric gravity is cosmologically viable

Y Akrami, SF Hassan, F Könnig, A Schmidt-May… - Physics Letters B, 2015 - Elsevier
Bimetric theory describes gravitational interactions in the presence of an extra spin-2 field.
Previous work has suggested that its cosmological solutions are generically plagued by …

Cosmological stability bound in massive gravity and bigravity

M Fasiello, AJ Tolley - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle …, 2013 - iopscience.iop.org
We give a simple derivation of a cosmological bound on the graviton mass for spatially flat
FRW solutions in massive gravity with an FRW reference metric and for bigravity theories …
