摘要:

最近提出了一类新的修正引力理论,它是由度规Einstein-Hilbert拉格朗日量与Palatini构造的$f(\cal R)$项叠加而成。动态等效标量张量表示的模型也制定,它表明,即使标量场是非常轻的,该理论通过太阳系观测的限制。因此,该模型预测存在一个长程标量场,修改宇宙学和银河系动力学。一个明确的模型,通过当地的测试,并导致宇宙加速。在本工作中,研究表明该理论也可以用量$X\equiv κ^2 T+R$来表达,其中T和R分别是应力-能量和里奇张量的迹线。变量X表示相对于广义相对论的场方程轨迹的偏差。本文还探讨了这种混合度规-Palatini引力理论在宇宙学中的应用,并给出了由f(X)-引力的标量-张量表示得到的宇宙学解。讨论了获得宇宙加速的判据,并将场方程作为一个动力学系统进行了分析。根据有效标量场势的函数形式,得到了几类描述加速和减速宇宙的动力学宇宙解。此外,宇宙学扰动方程的推导和应用揭示的性质的传播标量自由度和签名这些模型预测的大尺度结构。

英文摘要:

A new class of modified theories of gravity, consisting of the superposition of the metric Einstein-Hilbert Lagrangian with an $f(\cal R)$ term constructed à la Palatini was proposed recently. The dynamically equivalent scalar-tensor representation of the model was also formulated, and it was shown that even if the scalar field is very light, the theory passes the Solar System observational constraints. Therefore the model predicts the existence of a long-range scalar field, modifying the cosmological and galactic dynamics. An explicit model that passes the local tests and leads to cosmic acceleration was also obtained. In the present work, it is shown that the theory can be also formulated in terms of the quantity $X\equiv κ^2 T+R$, where T and R are the traces of the stress-energy and Ricci tensors, respectively. The variable X represents the deviation with respect to the field equation trace of general relativity. The cosmological applications of this hybrid metric-Palatini gravitational theory are also explored, and cosmological solutions coming from the scalar-tensor representation of f(X)-gravity are presented. Criteria to obtain cosmic acceleration are discussed and the field equations are analyzed as a dynamical system. Several classes of dynamical cosmological solutions, depending on the functional form of the effective scalar field potential, describing both accelerating and decelerating Universes are explicitly obtained. Furthermore, the cosmological perturbation equations are derived and applied to uncover the nature of the propagating scalar degree of freedom and the signatures these models predict in the large-scale structure.
