Introduction

Cosmic acceleration

Page 3: Self accelerating universe from non-linear massive gravity

Introduction Can we give graviton a mass?

• Fierz and Pauli 1939

• Vainshtein 1972 non–linear interactions• Boulware–Deser (BD) ghost 1972

van Dam–Veltman–Zakharov discontinuity

Lack of Hamiltonian constrain and momentum constrain

6 degrees of freedom

Helicity ±2, ±1, 0 5 dof? 6th dof is the BD ghost!

Introduction • C. de Rham, G. Gabadadze and A. Tolly 2011

Source of MASS !

4 Stukelberg scalars respect Poincare symmetry

Eliminate a helicity-0 mode, the so called BD ghost in the decoupling limit.

It is also BD ghost free away from decoupling limit. (Hassan & Rosen 2011)

Self accelerating FRW universe No go result for FRW solution (G. D’Amico et al 2011 Aug.) However… (A.Gumrukcuoglu, C. Lin, S. Mukohyama: 1109.3845)

It does not extend to open FRW universe

The 4 Stukelberg scalars motivated by…

Minkowski metric

Open FRW chart

Both physical metric and fiducial metric respect FRW symmetry !

reads

• 1st solution

• 2nd and 3rd solutions

Please notice that these 2 solutions do not exist when K=0.

Anisotropic FRW universe We are going to look for a health region with large anisotropy, and then

look for an attractor in this health region

Consider the simplest Bianchi I type metric

As for the fiducial metric

Anisotropic FRW universe We consider an example with

For which local stability condition is satisfied. There is only one set of solution to 3 eqns of fixed point:

Remarks:Anisotropy differs from GR;Ghost free around fixed point;Coordinates redefinition
