ABSTRACT

Monge-Ampère gravitation is a modification of the classical Newtonian gravity where the linear Poisson equation is replaced by the nonlinear Monge-Ampère equation. First, I will show how Monge-Ampère gravity emerges from a system of non-interacting Brownian particles, through the application of the large deviation principle. Then, I will present the results of the first cosmological N-body simulation of Monge-Ampère gravity, which is solved by a performant semi-discrete algorithm based on optimal transport theory. Analysis of evolution of power spectra shows that the Monge-Ampère equation produces less power on small scales and more on large scales than the Poisson equation. Besides, a tentative first study of density profile of haloes, indicate that MA gravity might primarily result in dark matter core central profiles.
