Generating CMB polarization at LSS
Both density perturbation (scalar perturbation) and gravity waves (tensor perturbation) can generate quadrupole anisotropies for the radiation Scalar perturbation generates T and E-polarization Tensor perturbation generates T, E- and B-polarizations Polarizations experience modifications during the propagation from LSS to the observer (reionization, weak lensing, …) Here I report the change by CPT violation
Polarization and Stokes parameters At the inertial frame I→ intensity Q&U→ linear polarization V→ circular polarization Spin 2 The polarization angle:
How To Test CPT Violation With CMB Polarization Lorentz and CPT are violated by the Chern-Simons term The action integral is gauge invariant if the external field is constant or maybe the dark energy M.

Equations of motion Geometric Optics Approximation
Basic equations: M. Li, X. Zhang, PRD(2008)
CPT violation induced the rotation of the polarization direction Rotation angle only depends on the difference of dark energy field at the source and the observer’s positions. Rotation angle characterizes the CPT-violating effect!
In the case of homogeneous

Constraint
CPT violation in gravity causes different spectra for left and right handed tensor perturbations and generates TB and EB of CMB at LSS. TB and EB on RHS are due to
Spontaneous: Not necessary to modify the gravity! Rotation angle depends on time as well as space Equivalence principle We need to consider its gravitational perturbation

Conclusion n The high precision CMB polarization experiments are important ways to test CPT. Currently big process made along this direction. Explicit CPT breaking models need to modify the gravity. For spontaneous CPT breaking, the rotation angle is spatial dependent, we need to consider its gravitational perturbation.
