Gradient expansion(s) and dark energy

Motivated by recent claims stating that the acceleration of the present Universe is due to fluctuations with wavelength larger than the Hubble radius, we present a general analysis of various perturbative solutions of fully inhomogeneous Einstein equations supplemented by a perfect fluid. The equiva...

description Motivated by recent claims stating that the acceleration of the present Universe is due to fluctuations with wavelength larger than the Hubble radius, we present a general analysis of various perturbative solutions of fully inhomogeneous Einstein equations supplemented by a perfect fluid. The equivalence of formally different gradient expansions is demonstrated. If the barotropic index vanishes, the deceleration parameter is always positive semi-definite.
