| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In 1998, the late-time cosmic acceleration is discovered from the observations of supernovae. The origin of the source for this acceleration, dubbed dark energy, has not been identified yet. One of the candidates that can explain the late-time cosmic acceleration is a modification of gravity at large distances. For the models based on modified gravitational theories, I revealed the theoretical conditions to avoid instabilities, theoretical prediction of the evolutions of the matter perturbations and its effect to the observables at large distances. I also studied the screening mechanism of the fifth forth at short distances such as the solar system, and clarified the conditions for the models to satisfy local gravity experiments. These studies make a large contribution to distinguish between theoretical models of dark energy based on modified gravity.
