Description

Interaction between dark matter (DM) and dark energy (DE) is one of the not completely solved problems in cosmology that has been studied extensively. This interaction affects cosmic structures. In this regard, the shape of cosmic voids can be influenced by the DM and DE interaction. Here, employing the dynamical DE model constrained by observational data, we study the effects of this interaction on the ellipticity of cosmic voids. With this aim, we apply the linear growth of density perturbation in the presence of interaction. The probability-density distribution for the ellipticity of cosmic voids is investigated. The results confirm that the ellipticity of cosmic voids increases when the DM and DE interaction is considered.
