We analyze the dynamics of an AdS5 braneworld with matter fields when gravity is allowed to deviate from the Einstein form on the brane. We consider exact five-dimensional warped solutions which are associated with conformal bulk fields of weight –4 and describe on the brane the following three dynamics: those of inhomogeneous dust, of generalized dark radiation, and of homogeneous polytropic dark energy. We show that, with modified gravity on the brane, the existence of such dynamical geometries requires the presence of non-conformal matter fields confined to the brane. 相似文献

Weak gravitational lensing is rapidly becoming one of the principal probes of dark matter and dark energy in the universe.
In this brief review we outline how weak lensing helps determine the structure of dark matter halos, measure the expansion
rate of the universe, and distinguish between modified gravity and dark energy explanations for the acceleration of the universe.
We also discuss requirements on the control of systematic errors so that the systematics do not appreciably degrade the power
of weak lensing as a cosmological probe. 相似文献

We suggest the modified gravity where some arbitrary function of Gauss–Bonnet (GB) term is added to Einstein action as gravitational dark energy. It is shown that such theory may pass solar system tests. It is demonstrated that modified GB gravity may describe the most interesting features of late-time cosmology: the transition from deceleration to acceleration, crossing the phantom divide, current acceleration with effective (cosmological constant, quintessence or phantom) equation of state of the universe. 相似文献

In the paper, we apply the weak gravity conjecture to the holographic quintessence model of dark energy. Three different holographic dark energy models are considered: without the interaction in the non-flat universe; with interaction in the flat universe; with interaction in the non-flat universe. We find that
only in the models with the spatial curvature and interaction term proportional to the energy density of matter, it is possible for the weak gravity conjecture to be satisfied. And it seems that the weak gravity conjecture favors an open universe and the decaying of matter into dark energy. 相似文献

The problem of dark energy is briefly reviewed in both theoretical and observational aspects. In the theoretical aspect, dark energy scenarios are classified into symmetry, anthropie principle, tuning mechanism, modified gravity, quantum cosmology, holographic principle, back-reaction and phenomenologieal types. In the observational aspect, we introduce cosmic probes, dark energy related projects, observational constraints on theoretical models and model independent reconstructions. 相似文献

The holographic dark energy (HDE) is now an interesting candidate of dark energy, which has been studied extensively in the literature. In the derivation of HDE, the black hole entropy plays an important role. In fact, the entropy-area relation can be modified due to loop quantum gravity or other reasons. With the modified entropy-area relation, we propose the so-called ``entropy-corrected holographic dark energy' (ECHDE) in the present work. We consider many aspects of ECHDE and find some interesting results. In addition, we briefly consider the so-called ``entropy-corrected agegraphic dark energy' (ECADE). 相似文献

We construct a holographic dark energy density in the modified gravity for a non-flat space. We incorporate possible modification
of equation of state for the holographic energy density in the spirit of f(R) gravity. In this case we choose Jeans length as the IR cut-off in the holographic model. Then we employ the non-flat universe
for the holographic modified gravity to obtain a general form of f(R) in this setup. 相似文献

In this work, we have considered the Ricci dark energy model, where the energy density of the universe is proportional to the Ricci scalar curvature, in the dynamic Chern–Simons modified gravity. We show that in this context the evolution of the scale factor is similar to that displayed by the modified Chaplygin gas. 相似文献

The objective of this paper is to discuss the Chameleon Brans–Dicke gravity with non-minimally matter coupling of scalar field. We take modified Holographic Ricci dark energy model in this gravity with its energy density in interaction with energy density of cold dark matter. We assume power-law ansatz for scale factor and scalar field to discuss potential as well as coupling functions in the evolving universe. These reconstructed functions are plotted versus scalar field and time for different values of power component of scale factor n. We observe that potential and coupling functions represent increasing behavior, in particular, consistent results for a specific value of n. Finally, we have examined validity of the generalized second law of thermodynamics and we have observed its validity for all values of n. 相似文献

Recently, corrections to the standard Einstein-Hilbert action were
proposed to explain the current cosmic acceleration in stead of introducing dark energy. In the Palatini formulation of those modified gravity models, there is an important observation due to Arkani-Hamed: matter loops will give rise to a correction to the modified gravity action proportional to the Ricci scalar of the
metric. In the presence of such a term, we show that the current forms of modified gravity models in Palatini formulation, specifically, the 1/R gravity and ln R gravity, will have
phantoms. Then we study the possible instabilities due to the presence of phantom fields. We show that the strong instability in the metric formulation of 1/R gravity indicated by Dolgov and
Kawasaki will not appear and the decay timescales for the phantom fields may be long enough for the theories to make sense as effective field theory . On the other hand, if we change the sign
of the modification terms to eliminate the phantoms, some other
inconsistencies will arise for the various versions of the modified gravity models. Finally, we comment on the universal property of the Palatini formulation of the matter loops corrected modified gravity models and its implications. 相似文献

Holographic dark energy (HDE), presents a dynamical view of dark energy which is consistent with the observational data and
has a solid theoretical background. Its definition follows from the entropy-area relation S(A), where S and A are entropy and area respectively. In the framework of loop quantum gravity, a modified definition of HDE called “entropy-corrected
holographic dark energy” (ECHDE) has been proposed recently to explain dark energy with the help of quantum corrections to
the entropy-area relation. Using this new definition, we establish a correspondence between modified variable Chaplygin gas,
new modified Chaplygin gas and the viscous generalized Chaplygin gas with the entropy corrected holographic dark energy and
reconstruct the corresponding scalar potentials which describe the dynamics of the scalar field. 相似文献

Observations provide increasingly strong evidence that the universe is accelerating. This revolutionary advance in cosmological
observations confronts theoretical cosmology with a tremendous challenge, which it has so far failed to meet. Explanations
of cosmic acceleration within the framework of general relativity are plagued by difficulties. General relativistic models
are nearly all based on a dark energy field with fine-tuned, unnatural properties. There is a great variety of models, but
all share one feature in common—an inability to account for the gravitational properties of the vacuum energy. Speculative
ideas from string theory may hold some promise, but it is fair to say that no convincing model has yet been proposed. An alternative
to dark energy is that gravity itself may behave differently from general relativity on the largest scales, in such a way
as to produce acceleration. The alternative approach of modified gravity (or dark gravity) provides a new angle on the problem,
but also faces serious difficulties, including in all known cases severe fine-tuning and the problem of explaining why the
vacuum energy does not gravitate. The lack of an adequate theoretical framework for the late-time acceleration of the universe
represents a deep crisis for theory—but also an exciting challenge for theorists. It seems likely that an entirely new paradigm
is required to resolve this crisis. 相似文献

The current cosmological paradigm, the cold dark matter model with a cosmological constant, requires that the mass-energy of the Universe be dominated by invisible components: dark matter and dark energy. An alternative to these dark components is that the law of gravity be modified on the relevant scales. A test of these ideas is provided by the baryonic Tully-Fisher relation (BTFR), an empirical relation between the observed mass of a galaxy and its rotation velocity. Here, I report a test using gas rich galaxies for which both axes of the BTFR can be measured independently of the theories being tested and without the systematic uncertainty in stellar mass that affects the same test with star dominated spirals. The data fall precisely where predicted a?priori by the modified Newtonian dynamics. The scatter in the BTFR is attributable entirely to observational uncertainty, consistent with a single effective force law. 相似文献

Motivated by a recent work of one of us (Sheykhi in Phys Rev D 81: 023525, 2010), we extend it by using quantum (or entropy)
corrected new agegraphic dark energy in the Brans–Dicke cosmology. The correction terms are motivated from the loop quantum
gravity which is one of the competitive theories of quantum gravity. Taking the non-flat background spacetime along with the
conformal age of the universe as the length scale, we derive the dynamical equation of state of dark energy and the deceleration
parameter. An important consequence of this study is the phantom divide scenario with entropy-corrected new agegraphic dark
energy. Moreover, we assume a system of dark matter, radiation and dark energy, while the later interacts only with dark matter.
We obtain some essential expressions related with dark energy dynamics. The cosmic coincidence problem is also resolved in
our model. 相似文献

There is a significant difference between the calculation based on the theory of general relativity and observation of rotation curves of spiral galaxies. To describe this discrepancy, two distinct theories have been proposed so far: existence of dark matter and modification of underlying gravitational theory. In the absence of dark matter, it is assumed that the theory of general relativity on galactic scales needs to be modified. This letter is devoted to explaining this difference in a modified teleparMIeI gravity. We show that modified teleparallel gravity favors flatness of rotation curves of spiral galaxies much in the same way as observation shows. 相似文献

In this paper we study the cosmological evolution of the holographic dark energy in a cyclic universe, generalizing the model
of holographic dark energy proposed by Li. The holographic dark energy with c<1 can realize a quintom behavior; namely, it
evolves from a quintessence-like component to a phantom-like one. The holographic phantom energy density grows rapidly and
dominates the late-time expanding phase, helping to realize a cyclic universe scenario in which the high energy regime is
modified by the effects of quantum gravity, causing a turn-around (and a bounce) of the universe. The dynamical evolution
of holographic dark energy in the regimes of low energy and high energy is governed by two differential equations, respectively.
It is of importance to link the two regimes for this scenario. We propose a link condition giving rise to a complete picture
of holographic evolution of a cyclic universe. 相似文献

In this work, the collapsing process of a spherically symmetric star, made of dust cloud, is studied in Ho?ava Lifshitz gravity in the background of Chaplygin gas dark energy. Two different classes of Chaplygin gas, namely, New variable modified Chaplygin gas and generalized cosmic Chaplygin gas are considered for the collapse study. Graphs are drawn to characterize the nature and to determine the possible outcome of gravitational collapse. A comparative study is done between the collapsing process in the two different dark energy models. It is found that for open and closed universe, collapse proceeds with an increase in black hole mass, the only constraint being that, relatively smaller values of Λ has to be considered in comparison to λ. But in case of flat universe, possibility of the star undergoing a collapse in highly unlikely. Moreover it is seen that the most favourable environment for collapse is achieved when a combination of dark energy and dark matter is considered, both in the presence and absence of interaction. Finally, it is to be seen that, contrary to our expectations, the presence of dark energy does not really hinder the collapsing process in case of Ho?ava-Lifshitz gravity. 相似文献

In the frame of the scalar field model with non-minimal kinetic coupling to gravity, we study the cosmological solutions of
the Chaplygin gas model of dark energy. By appropriately restricting the potential, we found the scalar field, the potential
and coupling giving rise to the Chaplygin gas solution. Extensions to the generalized and modified Chaplygin gas have been
made. 相似文献
