FRW cosmological perturbations in massive bigravity

Abstract: Cosmological perturbations of Friedmann-Robertson-Walker solutions in ghost free massive bigravity, including also a second matter sector, are studied in detail. At early time, we find that subhorizon exponential instabilities are unavoidable and they lead to a premature departure from the perturbative regime of cosmological perturbations.

“…A second dynamical metric opens a whole new window for the above mentioned conceptual issues and actually does exhibit a stable flat Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) solution [56]. This has also been an active area of research lately, but unfortunately it is seems hard to obtain models where all perturbations are bounded on the backgrounds of interest [57][58][59].…”

“…Several extensions exist in the literature. One example would be the coupling of matter to both metrics g µν and f µν simultaneously [27,[45][46][47][48][49], which, however, would introduce the BD ghost if the same matter sector is coupled to both metrics [45,50,51]. Ghost-free (but not always with well-behaved cosmological solutions) scenarios exist if one assumes a coupling through a composite metric [40,50,[52][53][54][55][56][57][58][59].…”

“…Some works have some overlap with our own. Comelli et al [71], Koennig et al [80], Lagos et al [40], Cusin et al [78] and Amendola et al [41] employed linear perturbation theory to understand what pathologies may arise in each sector of bigravity. These works vary depending on the branch and α n region they focus on but overall they span several branches of solutions including the one employed here.…”
