abstract

The detection of GW170817 and its electromagnetic counterpart has revealed the speed of gravitational waves coincides with the speed of light, $c_T=1$. Inspired by the possibility that the physics implied by GW170817 might be related with that for the primordial universe, we construct the spatially flat stable (throughout the whole evolution) nonsingular bounce models in the beyond Horndeski theory with $c_T=1$ and in the degenerate higher-order scalar-tensor (DHOST) theory with $c_T=1$, respectively. Though it constricts the space of viable models, the constraint of $c_T=1$ makes the procedure of building models simpler.

  1. Fully viable DHOST bounce with extra scalar

    hep-th 2025-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A constructed two-field DHOST bouncing cosmology that avoids ghost, gradient, and superluminality problems and produces nearly scale-invariant curvature perturbations.

  2. Primordial non-Gaussianities of scalar and tensor perturbations in general bounce cosmology: Evading the no-go theorem

    gr-qc 2019-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In Horndeski gravity, matter bounce models can simultaneously satisfy the tensor-to-scalar ratio bound and non-Gaussianity constraints, evading a no-go theorem that applies to k-essence bounce models.

  3. Positivity in the effective field theory of cosmological perturbations

    hep-th 2019-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    For a c_T=1 beyond-Horndeski EFT of cosmological perturbations, positivity bounds including H^2/Λ^2 corrections are derived and applied to slow-roll inflation.
