Cosmological Constant from the Emergent Gravity Perspective

Padmanabhan, T., Padmanabhan, Hamsa

Understand

Observations indicate that our universe is characterized by a late-time accelerating phase, possibly driven by a cosmological constant $\Lambda$, with the dimensionless parameter $\Lambda L_P^2 \simeq 10^{-122}$, where $L_P = (G \hbar /c^3)^{1/2}$ is the Planck length.

In this review, we describe how the emergent gravity paradigm provides a new insight and a possible solution to the cosmological constant problem.
After reviewing the necessary background material, we identify the necessary and sufficient conditions for solving the cosmological constant problem.
We show that these conditions are naturally satisfied in the emergent gravity paradigm in which (i) the field equations of gravity are invariant under the addition of a constant to the matter Lagrangian and (ii) the cosmological constant appears as an integration constant in the solution.
