Cosmological Perturbations in Einstein-Aether Theories

In this thesis we study the Einstein-Aether (E-A) theory from the point of view of its cosmological perturbations. We are interested in the constraints that may be obtained from this analysis and the special features that can arise from the vector mode, absent in General Relativity. We apply the th...
