Density perturbation in an interacting holographic dark energy model
Abstract
The present work deals with the evolution of the density contrasts for a cosmological model where along with the standard cold dark matter (CDM), the present Universe also contains holographic dark energy (HDE). The characteristic infra-red (IR) cut-off is taken as the future event horizon. The HDE is allowed to interact with the CDM. The equations for the density contrasts are integrated numerically. It is found that irrespective of the presence of an interaction, the matter perturbation has growing modes. The HDE is also found to have growth of perturbation, so very much like the CDM, thus can also cluster. The interesting point to note is that the density contrast corresponding to HDE has a peak at recent past and is decaying at the present epoch. Another feature is that IR cut-off as the event horizon does not naturally produce accelerated expansion of the Universe in the presence of an interaction.
