Effect of Dark Energy Perturbation on Cosmic Voids Formation
  In this paper, we present the effects of dark energy perturbation on the
formation and abundance of cosmic voids. We consider dark energy to be a fluid
with a negative pressure characterised by a constant equation of state w and
speed of sound $c^2_s$. By solving fluid equations for two components, namely,
dark matter and dark energy fluids, we quantify the effects of dark energy
perturbation on the sizes of top-hat voids. We also explore the effects on the
size distribution of voids based on the excursion set theory. We confirm that
dark energy perturbation negligibly affects the size evolution of voids;$c^2_s
= 0$ varies the size only by 0.1% as compared to the homogeneous dark energy
model. We also confirm that dark energy perturbation suppresses the void size
when w < -1 and enhances the void size when $w > -1$ (Basse et al. 2011). In
contrast to the negligible impact on the size, we find that the size
distribution function on scales larger than 10 Mpc/h highly depends on dark
energy perturbation; compared to the homogeneous dark energy model, the number
of large voids of radius 30Mpc is 25% larger for the model with $w = -0.9$ and
$c^2_s = 0$ while they are 20% less abundant for the model with $w = -1.3$ and
$c^2_s = 0$.
