Dark Energy as a Born-Infeld Gauge Interaction Violating the Equivalence Principle

Dark Energy as a Born-Infeld Gauge Interaction Violating the Equivalence Principle

We investigate the possibility that dark energy does not couple to gravitation in the same way as ordinary matter, yielding a violation of the weak and strong equivalence principles on cosmological scales. We build a transient mechanism in which gravitation is pushed away from general relativity by a Born-Infeld gauge …
