abstract

We introduce $k$-evolution, a relativistic $N$-body code based on $\textit{gevolution}$, which includes clustering dark energy among its cosmological components. To describe dark energy, we use the effective field theory approach. In particular, we focus on $k$-essence with a speed of sound much smaller than unity but we lay down the basis to extend the code to other dark energy and modified gravity models. We develop the formalism including dark energy non-linearities but, as a first step, we implement the equations in the code after dropping non-linear self-coupling in the $k$-essence field. In this simplified setup, we compare $k$-evolution simulations with those of $\texttt{CLASS}$ and $\textit{gevolution}$ 1.2, showing the effect of dark matter and gravitational non-linearities on the power spectrum of dark matter, of dark energy and of the gravitational potential. Moreover, we compare $k$-evolution to Newtonian $N$-body simulations with back-scaled initial conditions and study how dark energy clustering affects massive halos.

    astro-ph.CO 2026-03 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Emulation of binned modified gravity power spectra to <1% accuracy enables MCMC forecasts that constrain μ and η via LSST large-scale structure combined with CMB lensing, with best sensitivity along the lensing combination Σ.

  3. Sound Mode and Scale-Dependent Growth in Two-Fluid Dynamical Dark Energy

    astro-ph.CO 2026-03 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    DDE sound modes induce scale-dependent growth and halo bias comparable to massless neutrinos; multi-tracer P+B forecasts detect it for c_s^{2} ~ 10^{-2}–10^{-4}, while lower speeds produce ~10% drag on cluster growth-...

    KGB braiding boosts weak-lensing power by ~10–12% at ℓ~10²–10³ and flips the ISW–RS difference from suppression to excess once nonlinear Rees–Sciama physics dominates.
