Why being interested in this model ?
One way to modify gravity at « large distances »… and get rid of dark energy ?
Dark matter or dark energy ?
Changing the dynamics of gravity ?

1. The DGP model (or brane-induced gravity).
Dvali, Gabadadze, Porrati, 2000 A « brane world » model: our 4D space-time is a surface embedded in a large space-time

Action principle for this
Peculiar to DGP model
Usual 5D brane world action
• Brane localized kinetic term for the graviton
• Will generically be induced by quantum corrections
A special hierarchy between M(5) and MP is required to render the model phenomenologically interesting
Phenomenological interestA new way to modify gravity at large distance, with a new type of phenomenology … (Important to have such models, if only to disentangle what does and does not depend on the large distance dynamics of gravity in what we know about the Universe)
Theoretical interestConsistent (?) non linear massive gravity …
DGP model
How does that work ? A scalar toy model for DGP

For a localized static source, one find the following response
5D potential at large distances
4D potential at small distances
Transition
• Newtonian potential on the brane behaves as
V(r) / r1
V(r) /r21
4D behavior at small distances
5D behavior at large distances
• The crossover distance between the two regimes is given by
This enables to get a “4D looking” theory of gravity out of one which is not, without having to assume a compact (Kaluza-Klein) or “curved” (Randall-Sundrum) bulk.
• But the tensorial structure of the graviton propagator is that of a massive graviton (gravity is mediated by a continuum of massive modes)
Leads to the van Dam-Veltman-Zakharov discontinuity on Minkowski background!
Back to the DGP model :
This coefficient equals +1 in Schwarschild solution
ds2 = à e÷(ú)dt2+eõ(ú)dú2+eö(ú)ú2dÒ22
÷(r) = àrrS(1
õ(r) = + 21

The vDVZ discontinuity as seen in Schwarzschild-type solution of « massive gravity » (DGP model, see thereafter!)
So, what is going on at smaller distances?
Vainshtein’s answer (1972):
There exists an other perturbative expansion at smaller distances, reading:
÷(r) = àrrS 1+O r5=2=r5=2v
ð ñn o
õ(r) = + rrS 1+O r5=2=r5=2v

with rà1v / m4=5
This goes smoothly toward Schwarschild as m goes to zero
No warranty that this solution can be matched with the other for large r! Boulware, Deser ‘72

2. Phenomenology of DGP model2.1 homogeneous cosmology
a(t0) a(t)
The dynamics of the scale factor a(t) of our 4D Universe (the brane) is governed by the modified Friedmann equation
With
Analogous to standard (4D) Friedmann equations
for small Hubble radii
Early cosmology as usual
Late time cosmology
Brane cosmology in 5D Minkowski bulk with no R term on the brane (i.e.: solution to 5D Einstein-Hilbert Action)
Depending on the sign of
Late time deviation from standard cosmology Self accelerating solution (asympotes de Sitter space even with zero matter energy density)
One virtue of DGP model: can get accelerated universe by large distance modification of gravity (C.D (‘01); C.D., Dvali, Gabadaze (‘02)).

Strictly speaking, only SN observations are depending solely on the background evolutions
CMB and more importantly Baryon oscillations should be re-computed taking into account the peculiarities of DGP gravity
• Exact cosmological solutions provide an explicit example of interpolation between theories with different tensor structure for the graviton propagator.

Comes in support of a « Vainshtein mechanism » [non perturbative
recovery of the « massless » solutions] at work in DGP…… Recently an other exact solution found by Kaloper for localized relativistic source showing the same recovery…..

For the Earth
Universal perihelion precession Best prospect to detect this effect: lunar ranging experiments (BEPPI COLUMBO mission ?)
2.3 Cosmological perturbations (linearized theory on a cosmological background)
One can get effective (4D) equations of motion which have the form (e.g. for matter on the brane with vanishing anisotropic stress) C.D. ‘02
Gravitationnal potentials
Usual 4D Einstein equations
Bulk « Weyl fluid » anistropic stress…
Has no local evolution equation
This has been put to zero by various authors for no good reasons (equivalent to « declare » that the model has no vDVZ discontinuity !)
Correct analysis done by Lue, Scoccimarro, Starkman; Koyama, Maartens ) non standard growth of LSS, yields 8 < 0.8 (at two sigma level)

Meaning of this strong coupling scale, UV completion at a scale even lower than Luty, Porrati, Rattazzi; Dvali;
Gabadadze; Nicolis, Rattazi; Rubakov
Interesting issues related to comparison between linearized solution and spherically symmetric perturbative solutions

Recent claim: no possible UV completion in a well-behaved theory ?
Adams, Arkani-Hamed, Dubovsky, Nicolis, Rattazzi
Not in DGP model, but at best in some limit where gravity has been decoupled !
Conclusions DGP gravity
• Modifies gravity at large distances
• Has a well defined action principle
• Accelerates universe expansion with no c.c. and the same # of parameters as CDM
• Can be distinguished from CDM
• Exciting observables linked to the « Vainshtein mechanism »: gravity is (also) modified at distances smaller than cosmological
More work needed to enlightened the dark side!
IN PARTICULAR, ONE SHOULD KEEP IN MIND THE LOW CUTOFF OF THE SCALAR PART OF THE THEORY… AS A CONSEQUENCE, COMPARISONS WITH PRECISION DATA ARE TO BE CONSIDERED WITH SOME CAUTION !
• Interesting playground to investigate « massive gravity » (a candidate for a consistent theory of « massive gravity »)
