The dynamics of a cosmological model fueled by scalar field dark matter with a cosh-like potential plus a cosmological constant is investigated in detail. It is revealed that the late-time attractor is always the de Sitter solution, and that, depending on the values of the free parameters, the oscillating solution of the scalar field -- modeling cold dark matter -- mediates between some early stage (say, the radiation-dominated solution) and the accelerating de Sitter attractor.

Dark matter (DM) may have its origin in a pre-Big Bang epoch, the cosmic inflation. Here, we consider for the first time a broad class of scenarios where a massive free scalar field unavoidably reaches an equilibrium between its classical and quantum
dynamics in a characteristic time scale during inflation and sources the DM density. The study gives the abundance and perturbation spectrum of any DM component sourced by the scalar field. We show that this class of scenarios generically predicts enhanced structure formation, allowing one to test models where DM interacts with matter only gravitationally.
It may prove useful in cosmology to understand the behavior of the energy distribution in a scalar field that interacts only with gravity and with itself by a pure quartic potential, because if such a field existed it would be gravitationally produce
d, as a squeezed state, during inflation. It is known that the mean energy density in such a field after inflation varies with the expansion of the universe in the same way as radiation. I show that if the field initially is close to homogeneous, with small energy density contrast delta rho /rho and coherence length L, the energy density fluctuations behave like acoustic oscillations in an ideal relativistic fluid for a time on the order of L/|delta rho /rho|. This ends with the appearance of features that resemble shock waves, but interact in a close to elastic way that reversibly disturbs the energy distribution.
This paper aims to put constraints on the parameters of the Scalar Field Dark Matter (SFDM) model, when dark matter is described by a free real scalar field filling the whole Universe, plus a cosmological constant term. By using a compilation of 51 $
H(z)$ data and 1048 Supernovae data from Panteon, a lower limit for the mass of the scalar field was obtained, $m geq 5.1times 10^{-34} $eV and $H_0=69.5^{+2.0}_{-2.1}text{ km s}^{-1}text{Mpc}^{-1}$. Also, the present dark matter density parameter was obtained as $Omega_phi = 0.230^{+0.033}_{-0.031}$ at $2sigma$ confidence level. The results are in good agreement to standard model of cosmology, showing that SFDM model is viable in describing the dark matter content of the universe.
We describe and test a family of new numerical methods to solve the Schrodinger equation in self-gravitating systems, e.g. Bose-Einstein condensates or fuzzy/ultra-light scalar field dark matter. The methods are finite-volume Godunov schemes with sta
ble, higher-order accurate gradient estimation, based on a generalization of recent mesh-free finite-mass Godunov methods. They couple easily to particle-based N-body gravity solvers (with or without other fluids, e.g. baryons), are numerically stable, and computationally efficient. Different sub-methods allow for manifest conservation of mass, momentum, and energy. We consider a variety of test problems and demonstrate that these can accurately recover solutions and remain stable even in noisy, poorly-resolved systems, with dramatically reduced noise compared to some other proposed implementations (though certain types of discontinuities remain challenging). This is non-trivial because the quantum pressure is neither isotropic nor positive-definite and depends on higher-order gradients of the density field. We implement and test the method in the code GIZMO.
We derive non-relativistic equations of motion for the formation of cosmological structure in a Scalar Field Dark Matter (SFDM) model corresponding to a complex scalar field endowed with a quadratic scalar potential. Starting with the full equations
of motion written in the Newtonian gauge of scalar perturbations, we separate out the fields involved into relativistic and non-relativistic parts, and find the equations of motion for the latter that can be used to build up the full solution. One important assumption will also be that the SFDM field is in the regime of fast oscillations, under which its behavior is exactly that of cold dark matter. The resultant equations are quite similar to the Schrodinger-Poisson system of Newtonian boson stars plus relativistic leftovers. We exploit that similarity to show how to simulate, with minimum numerical effort, the formation of cosmological structure in SFDM models and others alike, and ultimately prove their viability as complete dark matter models.
