Salvatore Capozziello, Rocco D'Agostino

AI总结:

本研究提出一种不依赖模型的方法,基于观测和Padé多项式数值流程重构非局域引力的畸变函数,解释晚期宇宙加速且避免宇宙学常数精细调节问题,并与基于ΛCDM背景的相关结果对比。

摘要:

我们研究由达朗贝尔算子逆形式的畸变函数所描述的广义相对论非局域修正,引入这类项的动机是,非局域引力有望解释宇宙当前的加速膨胀现象。我们特别提出了一种不依赖模型的方法,基于现有观测结果重构畸变函数的形态,无需预设特定的宇宙演化历史。我们阐述了一种基于Padé多项式的数值流程,可用于研究为将非局域引力作用局域化而引入的辅助标量场的时间演化。通过选取合适的边界条件,我们重构了非局域拉格朗日量的形式,并推导出数值结果的最优解析近似。此外,畸变函数在物质主导时期开始发挥作用,其效应延迟至最近的宇宙时段才显现,这为晚期宇宙加速提供了一种自然解释,避免了宇宙学常数的精细调节问题。最后,我们将所得预测与此前在重构过程中强制采用标准ΛCDM背景的研究结果进行了对比。

英文摘要:

We consider non-local modifications of General Relativity given by a distortion function in terms of the inverse of the d'Alembert operator. The inclusion of these terms is motivated by the possibility of reproducing the current accelerated expansion of the Universe starting from non-local gravity. In particular, we propose a model-independent method, based on current observations, to reconstruct the shape of the distortion function, without resorting to a specific cosmological history. We describe a numerical procedure based on Padé polynomials that allows us to study the time evolution of the auxiliary scalar fields introduced to localize non-local gravity action. Thus, adopting suitable boundary conditions, we reconstruct the form of the non-local Lagrangian and infer the best analytical approximation of the numerical outcome. Furthermore, the distortion function turns on during the matter-dominated era, and its effects are delayed to the most recent cosmic times. This provides a natural explanation for the late cosmic acceleration, avoiding any fine-tuning problem of the cosmological constant. Finally, we compare our predictions with previous findings based on enforcing the standard $Λ$CDM background in the reconstruction process.
