2 Outline Theory Why modified gravity? Ostrogradski, Horndeski and scalar-tensor gravity; Galileon gravity as generalized DGP; Galileon in Minkowski and curved spacetime. Phenomenology and Constraints background, de Sitter attractor linear perturbation, ghost and laplace instability; CMB, lensing, matter power spectrum, etc; tension between expansion and growth.
3 Part One Theory Why modified gravity? Ostrogradski, Horndeski and scalar-tensor gravity; Galileon gravity as generalized DGP; Galileon in Minkowski and curved spacetime.
4 Part One Theory Why modified gravity? Ostrogradski, Horndeski and scalar-tensor gravity; Galileon gravity as generalized DGP; Galileon in Minkowski and curved spacetime.
5 Why modified gravity? Cosmological Constant (CC)? No compelling field theory explanation for cosmic acceleration vacuum energy? 120 order of magnitude larger than CC In general there is high-order quantum correction A dynamical theory, protected against loop correction by symmetry
6 What qualifies? Modify GR in the infrared, acceleration without CC Nonlinearity, screening mechanism to pass solar system test Vainshtein mechanism: DGP, Galileon, Massive Gravity Chameleon mechanism: f(r) Symmetron...
7 Part One Theory Why modified gravity? Ostrogradski, Horndeski and scalar-tensor gravity; Galileon gravity as generalized DGP; Galileon in Minkowski and curved spacetime.
8 Ostrogradski's theorem In general higher-derivative theories have extra DoF and usually plagued by instabilities Ostrogradski's theorem: linear instability in the Hamiltonians associated with Lagrangians which depend upon more than one time derivative non-degenerately 1D unrelativistic point particle example: Euler-Lagrange eqn: M. Ostrogradski, Mem. Ac. St. Petersbourg VI 4, 385 (1850) R. Woodard, Lect. Notes Phys. 720, 403 (2007) [arxiv:astro-ph/ ]
9 Ostrogradski's theorem EoM: Canonical coordinates inversion M. Ostrogradski, Mem. Ac. St. Petersbourg VI 4, 385 (1850) R. Woodard, Lect. Notes Phys. 720, 403 (2007) [arxiv:astro-ph/ ]
10 Ostrogradski's theorem Legendre transformation Hamiltonian eqns hold Hamiltonian linear in P1, thus unstable M. Ostrogradski, Mem. Ac. St. Petersbourg VI 4, 385 (1850) R. Woodard, Lect. Notes Phys. 720, 403 (2007) [arxiv:astro-ph/ ]
11 Horndeski's theory Suppress Ostrogradski's instability by requiring 2nd order E-L eqns Starting from the general form Horndeski proved the most general 2nd-order E-L eqn can be obtained from a Lagrange density of the above form with p=q=2, 10 free functions with 6 PDE's No new DoF, but not necessarily stable DGP and Galileon as subsets G. W. Horndeski, Int. J. Theor. Phys. 10 (1974)
12 Part One Theory Why modified gravity? Ostrogradski, Horndeski and scalar-tensor gravity; Galileon gravity as generalized DGP; Galileon in Minkowski and curved spacetime.
13 DGP 4D gravity in 5D Minkowski spacetime Galilean and shift symmetry in decoupling limit Vainshtein mechanism Self-accelerating branch, plagued by ghost (kinetic term has the wrong sign)
14 Motivation of Galileon gravity Most general 4D Lagrangian with galilean and shift symmetry. Protection from radiative loop correction? Vainshtein mechanism No-ghost de Sitter attractor solution Other motivation of Galilean symmetry: higher dimension symmetry massive gravity A. Nicolis, R. Rattazzi and E. Trincherini, arxiv: [hep-th]
