Mimicking general relativity in the solar system
Luca Amendola, Christos Charmousis, Stephen C. Davis
In order for a modified gravity model to be a candidate for cosmological dark energy it has to pass stringent local gravity experiments. We find that a Brans-Dicke (BD) theory with…
Non-local dilaton coupling to dark matter: cosmic acceleration and pressure backreaction
L. Amendola, M. Gasperini, C. Ungarelli
A model of non-local dilaton interactions, motivated by string duality symmetries, is applied to a scenario of "coupled quintessence" in which the dilaton dark energy is non-locall…
Conditions for the cosmological viability of f(R) dark energy models
Luca Amendola, Radouane Gannouji, David Polarski +1
We derive the conditions under which dark energy models whose Lagrangian densities f are written in terms of the Ricci scalar R are cosmologically viable. We show that the cosmolog…
