Phenomenological functions $\Sigma$ and $\mu$, also known as $G_{\rm light}/G$ and $G_{\rm matter}/G$, are commonly used to parameterize modifications of the growth of large-scale structure in alternative theories of gravity. We study the…
We study the growth of linear perturbations induced by a generic causal scaling source as a function of the cosmological parameters $h$, $\Omega^m_0$ and $\Omega^\Lambda_0$. We show that for wavenumbers $k \gsim 0.01 h/Mpc$ the spectrum of…
The next generation of surveys will greatly improve our knowledge of cosmological gravity. In this paper we focus on how Stage IV photometric redshift surveys, including weak lensing and multiple tracers of the matter distribution and radio…
Horndeski gravity is the most general scalar-tensor theory with one scalar field leading to second-order Euler-Lagrange field equations for the metric and scalar field, and it is based on Riemannian geometry. In this paper, we formulate an…
