We examine the growth of structure in three different cosmological models with interacting dark matter and vacuum energy. We consider the case of geodesic dark matter with zero sound speed, where the relativistic growing mode in comoving-synchronous gauge coincides with the Newtonian growing mode at first order in $Lambda$CDM. We study corrections to the linearly growing mode in the presence of interactions and the linear matter growth rate, $f_1$, contrasting this with the velocity divergence, $f_{rsd}sigma_8$, observed through redshift-space distortions. We then derive second-order density perturbations in these interacting models. We identify the reduced bispectrum that corresponds to the non-linear growth of structure and show how the shape of the bispectrum is altered by energy transfer to or from the vacuum. Thus the bispectrum, or higher-order correlators, might in future be used to identify dark matter interactions.

We present a phase-space analysis of the qualitative dynamics cosmologies where dark matter exchanges energy with the vacuum component. We find fixed points corresponding to power-law solutions where the different components remain a constant fractio
n of the total energy density and given an existence condition for any fixed points with nonvanishing energy transfer. For some interaction models we find novel fixed points in the presence of a third noninteracting fluid with constant equation of state, such as radiation, where the interacting vacuum+matter tracks the evolution of the third fluid, analogous to tracker solutions previously found for self-interacting scalar fields. We illustrate the phase-plane behavior, determining the equation of state and stability of the fixed points in the case of a simple linear interaction model, for interacting vacuum and dark matter, including the presence of noninteracting radiation. We give approximate solutions for the equation of state in matter- or vacuum-dominated solutions in the case of small interaction parameters.
In this paper we explore possible extensions of Interacting Dark Energy cosmologies, where Dark Energy and Dark Matter interact non-gravitationally with one another. In particular, we focus on the neutrino sector, analyzing the effect of both neutrin
o masses and the effective number of neutrino species. We consider the Planck 2018 legacy release data combined with several other cosmological probes, finding no evidence for new physics in the dark radiation sector. The current neutrino constraints from cosmology should be therefore regarded as robust, as they are not strongly dependent on the dark sector physics, once all the available observations are combined. Namely, we find a total neutrino mass $M_ u<0.15$ eV and a number of effective relativistic degrees of freedom of $N_{rm eff}=3.03^{+0.33}_{-0.33}$, both at 95% CL, which are close to those obtained within the $Lambda$CDM cosmology, $M_ u<0.12$ eV and $N_{rm eff}=3.00^{+0.36}_{-0.35}$ for the same data combination.
Cold dark matter (CDM) could be composed of primordial black holes (PBH) in addition to or instead of more orthodox weakly interacting massive particle dark matter (PDM). We study the formation of the first structures in such $Lambda$PBH cosmologies
using $N$-body simulations evolved from deep in the radiation era to redshift 99. When PBH are only a small component of the CDM, they are clothed by PDM to form isolated halos. On the other hand, when PBH make most of the CDM, halos can also grow via clustering of many PBH. We find that the halo mass function is well modelled via Poisson statistics assuming random initial conditions. We quantify the nonlinear velocities induced by structure formation and find that they are too small to significantly impact CMB constraints. A chief challenge is how best to extrapolate our results to lower redshifts relevant for some observational constraints.
The problem of cosmological production of gravitational waves is discussed in the framework of an expanding, spatially homogeneous and isotropic FRW type Universe with time-evolving vacuum energy density. The gravitational wave equation is establishe
d and its modified time-dependent part is analytically resolved for different epochs in the case of a flat geometry. Unlike the standard $Lambda$CDM cosmology (no interacting vacuum), we show that gravitational waves are produced in the radiation era even in the context of general relativity. We also show that for all values of the free parameter, the high frequency modes are damped out even faster than in the standard cosmology both in the radiation and matter-vacuum dominated epoch. The formation of the stochastic background of gravitons and the remnant power spectrum generated at different cosmological eras are also explicitly evaluated. It is argued that measurements of the CMB polarization (B-modes) and its comparison with the rigid $Lambda$CDM model plus the inflationary paradigm may become a crucial test for dynamical dark energy models in the near future.
Vacuum energy is a simple model for dark energy driving an accelerated expansion of the universe. If the vacuum energy is inhomogeneous in spacetime then it must be interacting. We present the general equations for a spacetime-dependent vacuum energy
in cosmology, including inhomogeneous perturbations. We show how any dark energy cosmology can be described by an interacting vacuum+matter. Different models for the interaction can lead to different behaviour (e.g., sound speed for dark energy perturbations) and hence could be distinguished by cosmological observations. As an example we present the cosmic microwave microwave background anisotropies and the matter power spectrum for two differe
