abstract

We present a general method to compute the nonlinear matter power spectrum for dark energy and modified gravity scenarios with percent-level accuracy. By adopting the halo model and nonlinear perturbation theory, we predict the reaction of a $\Lambda$CDM matter power spectrum to the physics of an extended cosmological parameter space. By comparing our predictions to $N$-body simulations we demonstrate that with no-free parameters we can recover the nonlinear matter power spectrum for a wide range of different $w_0$-$w_a$ dark energy models to better than 1% accuracy out to $k \approx 1 \, h \, {\rm Mpc}^{-1}$. We obtain a similar performance for both DGP and $f(R)$ gravity, with the nonlinear matter power spectrum predicted to better than 3% accuracy over the same range of scales. When including direct measurements of the halo mass function from the simulations, this accuracy improves to 1%. With a single suite of standard $\Lambda$CDM $N$-body simulations, our methodology provides a direct route to constrain a wide range of non-standard extensions to the concordance cosmology in the high signal-to-noise nonlinear regime.

  1. Emulating the nonlinear effects of modified gravity on the matter power spectrum for reconstruction

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A neural-network emulator predicts the ratio of nonlinear to linear modified-gravity matter power spectra across a 28-dimensional cosmological and MG parameter space, matching MGCAMB+ReACT to roughly 1–2%.

  2. Disentangling modified gravity and galaxy bias with field-level inference

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    With fixed known initial phases, voxel-by-voxel Poisson likelihood on the galaxy number-counts field breaks the f(R)–bias degeneracy that power spectra cannot resolve, with voids and walls driving the gain.

  3. Computing Nonlinear Power Spectra Across Dynamical Dark Energy Model Space with Neural ODEs

    astro-ph.CO 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A neural ODE trained only on LambdaCDM spectra predicts nonlinear matter power spectra to about 4 percent accuracy for smooth w(z) dark energy models, pending stronger validation.

  4. Extending CSST Emulator to post-DESI era

    astro-ph.CO 2025-10 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A tuned 'spectral equivalence' mapping lets the CSST emulator predict nonlinear matter power spectra at ~1% accuracy across the DESI DR2+CMB dynamic-dark-energy posterior.
