Gravitational waves driven by holographic dark energy

Abstract

In this paper, we have studied the effects of holographic dark energy on the evolution of gravitational waves. The background evolution of gravitational waves in a flat FRW universe is considered and studied in the presence of various holographic dark energy models. The perturbation equations governing the evolution of the gravitational waves have been constructed and solutions are obtained. These solutions are studied in detail to get a proper understanding of the characteristics of the gravitational waves in the presence of holographic dark energy. The work can be a significant tool in studying different dark energy models comparatively using the features of the gravitational wave evolution.
