A rapid transition of G_(rm eff) at z_t simeq 0.01 as a solution of the Hubble and growth tensions
read the original abstract
The mismatch in the value of the Hubble constant from low- and high-redshift observations may be recast as a discrepancy between the low- and high-redshift determinations of the luminosity of Type Ia supernovae, the latter featuring an absolute magnitude which is $\approx 0.2$~mag lower. Here, we propose that a rapid transition in the value of the relative effective gravitational constant $\mu_G\equiv\frac{G_{\rm eff}}{G_N}$ at $z_t\simeq 0.01$ could explain the lower luminosity (higher magnitude) of local supernovae, thus solving the $H_0$ crisis. A model that features $\mu_G = 1$ for $z \lesssim 0.01$ but $\mu_G \simeq 0.9$ for $z \gtrsim 0.01$ is trivially consistent with local gravitational constraints but would raise the Chandrasekhar mass and so decrease the absolute magnitude of Type Ia supernovae at $z \gtrsim 0.01$ by the required value of $\approx 0.2$~mag. Such a rapid transition of the effective gravitational constant would not only resolve the Hubble tension but it would also help resolve the growth tension as it would reduce the growth of density perturbations without affecting the Planck/$\Lambda$CDM background expansion.

Can Distance Duality Violation Save Late-time Solutions to the Hubble Tension?
For fixed sound-horizon and supernova calibrations, no late-time modification—even one violating cosmic distance duality—can resolve the Hubble tension, because the required ~8-10% CDDR violation is excluded by BAO, c...

Geometric Constraints on the Pre-Recombination Expansion History from the Hubble Tension
Model-independent reconstruction shows that early-universe modifications resolving the Hubble tension exist at the background level, requiring a smooth ~15% pre-recombination expansion rate enhancement.

Double the axions, half the tension: multi-field early dark energy eases the Hubble tension
Two-field axion-like early dark energy reduces Hubble tension to 1.5 sigma residual and improves high-ell CMB fits over single-field models.

Exploring the interplay of late-time dynamical dark energy and new physics before recombination
Under standard recombination, phantom-crossing dynamical dark energy is preferred at ~97–98.5% probability; early-time fixes to the Hubble tension erase that preference while creating severe ω_m tension with CMB.

Model-independent reconstruction finds 96.7-98.5% probability of phantom crossing if recombination is standard, but early new physics to ease Hubble tension weakens this preference while requiring unrealistically high...
