Introduction Cosmic acceleration
Introduction • Can we give graviton a mass? • Fierz and Pauli 1939 • Vainshtein 1972 non–linear interactions • Boulware–Deser (BD) ghost 1972 van Dam–Veltman–Zakharov discontinuity Lack of Hamiltonian constrain and momentum constrain 6th dof is the BD ghost! 6 degrees of freedom ? 5 dof Helicity ±2, ±1, 0
Introduction • C. de Rham, G. Gabadadzeand A. Tolly 2011 4 Stukelberg scalars respect Poincare symmetry Source of MASS ! Eliminate a helicity-0 mode, the so called BD ghost in the decoupling limit. It is also BD ghost free away from decoupling limit. (Hassan & Rosen 2011)
Self accelerating FRW universe • No go result for FRW solution (G. D’Amico et al 2011 Aug.) • However… (A.Gumrukcuoglu, C. Lin, S. Mukohyama: 1109.3845) It does not extend to open FRW universe The 4 Stukelbergscalars motivated by… Minkowski metric Open FRW chart Both physical metric and fiducial metric respect FRW symmetry !
Self accelerating FRW universe • reads • 1st solution • 2nd and 3rd solutions Please notice that these 2 solutions do not exist when K=0.
Self accelerating FRW universe • Freedmann equation where The effective cosmological constant
Self accelerating FRW universe • Break FRW symmetry • Some extended theories • Poincare Symmetry (arXiv:1111.4107) FRW symmetry in field space Flat/Open/Closed self-accelerating FRW universe is allowed with the same effective c.c . Ghost instability See Emir’s talk after a little while Sign of the effective cosmological constant
Anisotropic FRW universe arXiv:1206.2723 • We are going to look for a health region with large anisotropy, and then look for an attractor in this health region Considerthe simplest Bianchi I type metric As for the fiducial metric Varying the stuckelburg scalars Anisotropy
Anisotropic FRW universe • EoM of Stuckelburg scalar Where Einstein eqs EinteinEqs EoM Where
Anisotropic FRW universe Isotropic Fine Tuning Non-trivial anisotropic solution Einstein Equations +EoM Fixed points Local Stability Global Stability Local stability condition
Anisotropic FRW universe • We consider an example with For which local stability condition is satisfied. There is only one set of solution to 3 eqns of fixed point: • Remarks: • Anisotropy differs from GR; • Ghost free around fixed point; • Coordinates redefinition • Anisotropy cosmological • perturbation spectrum isotropic universe 1
Summary • We introduce such two cosmological solutions in this talk: • Self-accelerating FRW universe; • Anisotropic FRW universe more exciting work is in progress…… full analyse on the perturbations of the attractor solution, observational effect… Thank you!
