Interacting parametrized post-Friedmann method

Xu, Lixin; Richarte, Martín G.

We apply the interacting parametrized post-Friedmann (IPPF) method to coupled dark energy models where the interaction is proportional to dark matter density at background level. In the first case, the dark components are treated as fluids and the growth of dark matter perturbations only feel the interaction via the modification of background quan…

Emergent cosmology, inflation and dark energy

Herrera, Ramón; Guendelman, Eduardo; Labrana, Pedro +2 more

A new class of gravity-matter models defined in terms of two independent non-Riemannian volume forms (alternative generally covariant integration measure densities) on the space-time manifold are studied in some detail. These models involve an additional (square of the scalar curvature) term as well as scalar matter field potentials of appropriate…
