I will briefly introduce MTMG, and discuss its phenomenology for both the self-accelerating and normal branch.
We consider the finite interactions of the generalized Proca theory
including the sixth-order Lagrangian and derive the full linear perturbation
equations of motion on the flat Friedmann-Lema\^{i}tre-Robertson-Walker background
in the presence of a matter perfect fluid.
By construction, the propagating degrees of freedom (besides the matter perfect fluid)
are two transverse vector...
The time variation of the equation of state $w$ for quintessence scenario with a scalar field as dark energy is studied up to the third derivative ($d^3w/da^3$) with respect to the scale factor $a$, in order to predict the future observations and specify the scalar potential parameters. The third derivative of $w$ for general potential $V$ is derived and applied to several types of...
The latest cosmological observations by the Planck collaboration (and combined with others) are compatible with a phantom like behavior $(w<-1)$ for the dark energy equation of state that drives the current acceleration of the Universe. With this mindset we look into models where dark energy is described by a 3-form field minimally coupled to gravity. These models have the advantage, when...
On a warped five-dimensional Friedmann-Lema\^{\i}tre-Robertson-Walker(FLRW) spacetime, dark energy can be induced by a U(1) scalar-gauge field on the brane. We consider a zero effective cosmological constant, i.e., the Randall-Sundrum(RS) fine-tuning and no bulk matter fields. The standard model fields interact via the bulk Weyl tensor and cause brane fluctuations. Due to the warp factor,...
