Linear and non-linear perturbations in dark energy models
I review the linear and second-order perturbation theory in dark energy
models with explicit interaction to matter in view of applications to N-body
simulations and non-linear phenomena. Several new or generalized results are
obtained: the general equations for the linear perturbation growth; an
analytical expression for the bias induced by a species-dependent interaction;
the Yukawa correction to the gravitational potential due to dark energy
interaction; the second-order perturbation equations in coupled dark energy and
their Newtonian limit. I also show that a density-dependent effective dark
energy mass arises if the dark energy coupling is varying.Comment: 12 pages, submitted to Phys. Rev; v2: added a ref. and corrected a
