Density Perturbation Growth in Teleparallel Cosmology    [PDF]

Chao-Qiang Geng, Yi-Peng Wu
We study the cosmological perturbations in teleparallel dark energy models in which there is a dynamical scalar field with a non-minimal coupling to gravity. We find that the propagating degrees of freedom are the same as in quintessence cosmology despite that variables of the perturbed vierbein field are greater than those in metric theories. The resulting growth evolution shows that gravitational interactions are enhanced during the unique tracker evolution of teleparallel dark energy models.
