abstract

Early dark energy (EDE) offers a solution to the so-called Hubble tension. Recently, it was shown that the constraints on EDE using Markov Chain Monte Carlo are affected by prior volume effects. The goal of this paper is to present constraints on the fraction of EDE, $f_\mathrm{EDE}$, and the Hubble parameter, $H_0$, which are not subject to prior volume effects. We conduct a frequentist profile likelihood analysis considering Planck cosmic microwave background, BOSS full-shape galaxy clustering, DES weak lensing, and SH0ES supernova data. Contrary to previous findings, we find that $H_0$ for the EDE model is in statistical agreement with the SH0ES direct measurement at $\leq 1.7\,\sigma$ for all data sets. For our baseline data set (Planck + BOSS), we obtain $f_\mathrm{EDE} = 0.087\pm 0.037$ and $H_0 = 70.57 \pm 1.36\, \mathrm{km/s/Mpc}$ at $68\%$ confidence limit. We conclude that EDE is a viable solution to the Hubble tension.

  1. $\Lambda$CDM and early dark energy in latent space: a data-driven parametrization of the CMB temperature power spectrum

    astro-ph.CO 2025-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A variational autoencoder compresses CMB temperature spectra into 5 (LambdaCDM) or 8 (with early dark energy) latent parameters that reconstruct the data within Planck errors and can be constrained with Planck observations.

  2. The BAO-CMB Tension and Implications for Inflation

    astro-ph.CO 2025-07 accept novelty 5.0 of 10

    The upward shift in the scalar spectral index n_s in CMB+BAO analyses is driven by the combined effects of a known CMB degeneracy and the tension between CMB and DESI BAO data, not by new information about n_s itself.

  3. Bayesian and frequentist perspectives agree on dynamical dark energy

    astro-ph.CO 2025-06 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Frequentist profile-likelihood constraints on the CPL dark-energy parameters w0 and wa agree with Bayesian posteriors across DESI, CMB, and SN datasets, corroborating the evidence for dynamical dark energy.

  4. Illustrating the consequences of a misuse of $\sigma_8$ in cosmology

    astro-ph.CO 2025-01 accept novelty 5.0 of 10

    Cosmologists should compare clustering amplitude with the h-independent statistic sigma_12 instead of sigma_8, because sigma_8's smoothing scale shifts with H0 and artificially worsens the growth tension in high-H0 models.

  5. Hubble tension: a short review of theoretical explanations

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 accept novelty 4.0 of 10

    A comprehensive review finds no theoretical Hubble-tension solution yet passes all consistency tests; new early-dark-energy chains reach high H0 only when the SH0ES calibration is added.

  6. Imprint of swampland-inspired coupled early dark energy

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    A swampland-inspired DM-EDE coupling is tested against DESI DR2 BAO data, showing the EDE potential construction affects late-time dark energy constraints.

  7. Cosmic distance duality after DESI 2024 data release and dark energy evolution

    astro-ph.CO 2025-01 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Using DESI BAO, galaxy clusters, supernovae and Hubble data, the authors find no evidence for violation of the cosmic distance duality and favor flat ΛCDM.

  8. The Hubble tension: A decade review

    astro-ph.CO 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 3.0 of 10

    Pure early or late fixes to the Hubble tension are tightly constrained; remaining options are combined early-late interacting dark energy or new physics at the local-to-homogeneous transition.
