We study the holographic dark energy (HDE) model by using the future gravitational wave (GW) standard siren data observed from the Einstein Telescope (ET) in this work. We simulate 1000 GW standard siren data based on a 10-year observation of the ET to make this analysis. We find that all the cosmological parameters in the HDE model can be tremendously improved by including the GW standard siren data in the cosmological fit. The GW data combined with the current cosmic microwave background anisotropies, baryon acoustic oscillations, and type Ia supernovae data will measure the cosmological parameters $Omega_{rm m}$, $H_0$, and $c$ in the HDE model to be at the accuracies of 1.28%, 0.59%, and 3.69%, respectively. A comparison with the cosmological constant model and the constant-$w$ dark energy model shows that, compared to the standard model, the parameter degeneracies will be broken more thoroughly in a dynamical dark energy model. We find that the GW data alone can provide a fairly good measurement for $H_0$, but for other cosmological parameters the GW data alone can only provide rather weak measurements. However, due to the fact that the parameter degeneracies can be broken by the GW data, the standard sirens can play an essential role in improving the parameter estimation.

In this work, we use the simulated gravitational wave (GW) standard siren data from the future observation of the Einstein Telescope (ET) to constrain various dark energy cosmological models, including the $Lambda$CDM, $w$CDM, CPL, $alpha$DE, GCG, and NGCG models. We also use the current mainstream cosmological electromagnetic observations, i.e., the cosmic microwave background anisotropies data, the baryon acoustic oscillations data, and the type Ia supernovae data, to constrain these models. We find that the GW standard siren data could tremendously improve the constraints on the cosmological parameters for all these dark energy models. For all the cases, the GW standard siren data can be used to break the parameter degeneracies generated by the current cosmological electromagnetic observational data. Therefore, it is expected that the future GW standard siren observation from the ET would play a crucial role in the cosmological parameter estimation in the future. The conclusion of this work is quite solid because it is based on the analysis for various dark energy models.
Gravitational Waves (GWs) can determine the luminosity distance of the progenitor directly from the amplitude of the wave, without assuming any specific cosmological model. Thus, it can be considered as a standard siren. The coalescence of binary neutron stars (BNS) or neutron star-black hole pair (NSBH) can generate GWs as well as the electromagnetic counterpart, which can be detected in a form of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRB) and can be used to determine the redshift of the source. Consequently, such a standard siren can be a very useful probe to constrain the cosmological parameters. In this work, we consider an interacting Dark Matter-Dark Energy (DM-DE) model. Assuming some fiducial values for the parameters of our model, we simulate the luminosity distance for a realistic and optimistic GW+GRB events , which can be detected by the third-generation GW detector Einstein Telescope (ET). Using these simulated events, we perform a Monte Carlo Markov Chain (MCMC) to constrain the DM-DE coupling constant and other model parameters in $1sigma$ and $2sigma$ confidence levels. We also investigate how GWs can improve the constraints obtained by current cosmological probes.
We study the decay of gravitational waves into dark energy fluctuations $pi$, through the processes $gamma to pipi$ and $gamma to gamma pi$, made possible by the spontaneous breaking of Lorentz invariance. Within the EFT of Dark Energy (or Horndeski/beyond Horndeski theories) the first process is large for the operator $frac12 tilde m_4^2(t) , delta g^{00}, left( {}^{(3)}! R + delta K_mu^ u delta K^mu_ u -delta K^2 right)$, so that the recent observations force $tilde m_4 =0$ (or equivalently $alpha_{rm H}=0$). This constraint, together with the requirement that gravitational waves travel at the speed of light, rules out all quartic and quintic GLPV theories. Additionally, we study how the same couplings affect the propagation of gravitons at loop order. The operator proportional to $tilde m_4^2$ generates a calculable, non-Lorentz invariant higher-derivative correction to the graviton propagation. The modification of the dispersion relation provides a bound on $tilde m_4^2$ comparable to the one of the decay. Conversely, operators up to cubic Horndeski do not generate sizeable higher-derivative corrections.
The third-generation ground-based gravitational-wave (GW) detector, Cosmic Explorer (CE), is scheduled to start its observation in the 2030s. In this paper, we make a forecast for cosmological parameter estimation with gravitational-wave standard siren observation from the CE. We use the simulated GW standard siren data of CE to constrain the $Lambda$CDM, $w$CDM and CPL models. We combine the simulated GW data with the current cosmological electromagnetic observations including the latest cosmic microwave background anisotropies data from Planck, the optical baryon acoustic oscillation measurements, and the type Ia supernovae observation (Pantheon compilation) to do the analysis. We find that the future standard siren observation from CE will improve the cosmological parameter estimation to a great extent, since the future GW standard siren data can well break the degeneracies generated by the optical observations between various cosmological parameters. We also find that the CEs constraining capability on the cosmological parameters is slightly better than that of the same-type GW detector, the Einstein Telescope. In addition, the synergy between the GW standard siren observation from CE and the 21 cm emission observation from SKA is also discussed.
We present a detailed study of the methodology for correlating `dark sirens (compact binaries coalescences without electromagnetic counterpart) with galaxy catalogs. We propose several improvements on the current state of the art, and we apply them to the GWTC-2 catalog of LIGO/Virgo gravitational wave (GW) detections, and the GLADE galaxy catalog, performing a detailed study of several sources of systematic errors that, with the expected increase in statistics, will eventually become the dominant limitation. We provide a measurement of $H_0$ from dark sirens alone, finding as the best result $H_0=67.3^{+27.6}_{-17.9},,{rm km}, {rm s}^{-1}, {rm Mpc}^{-1}$ ($68%$ c.l.) which is, currently, the most stringent constraint obtained using only dark sirens. Combining dark sirens with the counterpart for GW170817 we find $H_0= 72.2^{+13.9}_{-7.5} ,{rm km}, {rm s}^{-1}, {rm Mpc}^{-1}$. We also study modified GW propagation, which is a smoking gun of dark energy and modifications of gravity at cosmological scales, and we show that current observations of dark sirens already start to provide interesting limits. From dark sirens alone, our best result for the parameter $Xi_0$ that measures deviations from GR (with $Xi_0=1$ in GR) is $Xi_0=2.1^{+3.2}_{-1.2}$. We finally discuss limits on modified GW propagation under the tentative identification of the flare ZTF19abanrhr as the electromagnetic counterpart of the binary black hole coalescence GW190521, in which case our most stringent result is $Xi_0=1.8^{+0.9}_{-0.6}$. We release the publicly available code $tt{DarkSirensStat}$, which is available under open source license at url{https://github.com/CosmoStatGW/DarkSirensStat}.
