    Abstract

    In this work, we constrain the value of σ8 for the normal and self-accelerating branch of a Dvali-Gabadadze-Porrati brane embedded in a five-dimensional Minkowski space-time. For that purpose, we first constrain the background model parameters H0, Ωm0, Ωr0, and M using the Pantheon+catalog and a mock catalog of gravitational waves. Then, we numerically solve the equation for dark matter scalar perturbations using the dynamic scaling solution for the master equation. Finally, we found that the evolution of matter density perturbations in both branches is different from the ΛCDM model and that the value of σ8=0.774±0.027 for the normal branch and σ8=0.913±0.032 for the self-accelerating branch.
