In the literature, it was proposed that the growth index $\gamma$ is useful to distinguish the scenarios of dark energy and modified gravity. In the present work, we consider the constraints on the growth index $\gamma$ by using the latest…
We place tight constraints on the growth index $\gamma$ by using the recent growth history results of 2dFGRS, SDSS-LRG, VIMOS-VLT deep Survey (VVDS) and {\em WiggleZ} datasets. In particular, we investigate several parametrizations of the…
We study the linear growth of matter perturbations in the DGP model with the growth index $\gamma$ as a function of redshift. At the linear approximation: $\gamma(z)\approx\gamma_0+\gamma_0^\prime z $, we find that, for…
The growth index of matter fluctuations is computed for ten distinct accelerating cosmological models and confronted to the latest growth rate data via a two-step process. First, we implement a joint statistical analysis in order to place…
The growth rate of matter perturbations can be used to distinguish between different gravity theories and to distinguish between dark energy and modified gravity at cosmological scales as an explanation to the observed cosmic acceleration.…
We show that in clustering dark energy models the growth index of linear matter perturbations, $\gamma$, can be much lower than in $\Lambda$CDM or smooth quintessence models and present a strong variation with redshift. We find that the…
Several experiments in the near future will test dark energy through its effects on the linear growth of matter perturbations. It is therefore important to find simple and at the same time general parametrizations of the linear growth rate.…
Peculiar velocities are an important probe of the growth rate of mass density fluctuations in the Universe. Most previous studies have focussed exclusively on measuring peculiar velocities at intermediate ($0.2 < z < 1$) redshifts using…
We re-examine the growth index of the concordance $\Lambda$ cosmology in the light of the latest 6dF and {\em WiggleZ} data. In particular, we investigate five different models for the growth index $\gamma$, by comparing their cosmological…

Alternative cosmological models have been proposed to alleviate the tensions reported in the concordance cosmological model, or to explain the current accelerated phase of the universe. One way to distinguish between General Relativity and…
In this study, we analyse constraints on the growth index of matter perturbations, $\gamma$, within the framework of $f(Q)$ gravity, using recent cosmological observations, at the background and the perturbation levels, including…
We propose a parametrization for the growth index of the linear matter perturbations, $\gamma(z)=\gamma_0+\frac{z}{1+z}\gamma_1$. The growth factor of the perturbations parameterized as $\Omega_m^{\gamma}$ is analyzed for both the $w$CDM…
This is the third of a series of papers in which we derive simultaneous constraints on cosmological parameters and X-ray scaling relations using observations of the growth of massive, X-ray flux-selected galaxy clusters. Our data set…
This is the first paper of a series where we study the clustering of LRG galaxies in the latest spectroscopic SDSS data release, DR6, which has 75000 LRG galaxies covering over 1 $Gpc^3/h^3$ at $0.15<z<0.47$. Here we focus on modeling…
We have compiled a dataset consisting of 22 datapoints at a redshift range (0.15,3.8) which can be used to constrain the linear perturbation growth rate f=\frac{d\ln\delta}{d\ln a}. Five of these data-points constrain directly the growth…
We have put forward a new unified framework which provides a consistent and rather complete account of the growth index of matter perturbations in the regime where the dark energy is allowed to have clustering. In particular, we find that…

We use measurements of the growth of cosmic structure, as inferred from the observed evolution of the X-ray luminosity function (XLF) of galaxy clusters, to constrain departures from General Relativity (GR) on cosmological scales. We employ…
