Modified gravity with disappearing cosmological constant

Abstract

New corrections to General Relativity are considered in the context of modified $f(R)$ gravity, that satisfy cosmological and local gravity constraints. The proposed models behave asymptotically as $R-2\Lambda$ at large curvature and show the vanishing of the cosmological constant at the flat spacetime limit. The chameleon mechanism and thin shell restrictions for local systems were analyzed, and bounds on the models were found. The steepness of the deviation parameter $m$ at late times leads to measurable signal of scalar-tensor regime in matter perturbations, that allows to detect departures form the $\Lambda$CDM model. The theoretical results for the evolution of the weighted growth rate $f{\sigma }_8(z)$, from the proposed models, were analyzed.
