Quintessence potential decreases monotonically with redshift while kinetic energy crosses zero near z=1, with negative values at intermediate redshifts being statistical artifacts from derivative reconstruction.

abstract
We use Gaussian Processes to map the expansion history of the universe in a model independent manner from the Union2.1 supernovae data and then apply these reconstructed results to solve for the growth history. By comparing this to BOSS and WiggleZ large scale structure data we examine whether growth is determined wholly by expansion, with the measured gravitational growth index testing gravity without assuming a model for dark energy. A further model independent analysis looks for redshift dependent deviations of growth from the general relativity solution without assuming the growth index form. Both approaches give results consistent with general relativity.
