Dynamics of dark energy

EJ Copeland, M Sami, S Tsujikawa - International Journal of Modern …, 2006 - World Scientific
We review in detail a number of approaches that have been adopted to try and explain the
remarkable observation of our accelerating universe. In particular we discuss the arguments …

Theoretical aspects of massive gravity

K Hinterbichler - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2012 - APS
Massive gravity has seen a resurgence of interest due to recent progress which has
overcome its traditional problems, yielding an avenue for addressing important open …

Reconciling dark energy models with theories

S Capozziello, VF Cardone, A Troisi - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields …, 2005 - APS
Higher-order theories of gravity have recently attracted a lot of interest as alternative
candidates to explain the observed cosmic acceleration without the need of introducing any …

Observational constraints on dark energy with generalized equations of state

S Capozziello, VF Cardone, E Elizalde, S Nojiri… - Physical Review D …, 2006 - APS
We investigate the effects of viscosity terms depending on the Hubble parameter and its
derivatives in the dark energy equation of state. Such terms are possible if dark energy is a …

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 …

Nonperturbative continuity in graviton mass versus perturbative discontinuity

C Deffayet, G Dvali, G Gabadadze, A Vainshtein - Physical Review D, 2002 - APS
We address the question of whether a graviton could have a small nonzero mass. The issue
is subtle for two reasons: there is a discontinuity in the mass in the lowest tree-level …

A natural framework for chaotic inflation

N Kaloper, L Sorbo - Physical review letters, 2009 - APS
We show that inflation with a quadratic potential occurs naturally in theories where an
axionlike field mixes with a 4-form. Such an axion is massive, with the mass which arises …

Symmetron cosmology

K Hinterbichler, J Khoury, A Levy, A Matas - Physical Review D—Particles …, 2011 - APS
The symmetron is a scalar field associated with the dark sector whose coupling to matter
depends on the ambient matter density. The symmetron is decoupled and screened in …
