The two main problems of

testing modified gravity

1) Problem of initial conditions e.g, how do we know if the shape of the power spectrum we observe is due to dark energy or to initial conditions?

2) Problem of design If our model parameter space is sufficiently large, we can design a model to fit any observation

• equivalent to a Horndeski Lagrangian without kinetic terms • easy to produce acceleration (first inflationary model) • high-energy corrections to gravity likely to introduce higher-

order terms • particular case of scalar-tensor and extra-dimensional theory

The simplest Horndeski model which still produces a modified gravity: f(R)

Simplest modified gravity: f(R)

Munich, Oct 2013 7

The next ten years of DE research

Combine observations of background, linear and non-linear perturbations to reconstruct

as much as possible the Horndeski model

… or to rule it out!

The great Horndeski Hunt

Let us assume we have only 1) a perturbed FRW metric

2) pressureless matter 3) the Horndeski field

Problem of non-linearity:

screening effects mix linear and non-linear scales

same density contrast

different physics

Three Messages

1

If DE is not a Horndeski field, then

we don’t know what could be

Munich, Oct 2013 36

2

k-binned data are crucial!

e.g. growth factor, redshift distortion parameter

3

Only by combining galaxy clustering and lensing

can DE be constrained (or ruled out!) in a model-independent way

Final remarks

Munich, Oct 2013 41

Few things I learned

Munich, Oct 2013 42

• String theory is not dead…and can save cosmology

• SN Ia progenitors still a mystery

• Euclid will fly in a different landscape…

• Industrial approach to model comparison

One thing I am trying to learn

Munich, Oct 2013 43

How to make a perfect Bavarian toast

Few things to improve

Munich, Oct 2013 44

• Faster N-body simulations

• New standards:

GW sirens, gal ages, AGN, real-time observables

• Effects of inhomogeneities and anisotropies on

parameter estimation

Few things to understand

Munich, Oct 2013 45

• Does vacuum energy gravitate?

• Is the coincidence problem(s) to be taken seriously?

• Does a “linear regime” really exists?

And can it be identified by observations alone?

Few wishes for the future

Munich, Oct 2013 46

• More theory-lite observational results

• More observation-lite theoretical results

• Meet again soon for deSitter III !
