abstract

We employ Hubble data and Gaussian Processes in order to reconstruct the dynamical connection function in $f(Q)$ cosmology beyond the coincident gauge. In particular, there exist three branches of connections that satisfy the torsionless and curvatureless conditions, parameterized by a new dynamical function $\gamma$. We express the redshift dependence of $\gamma$ in terms of the $H(z)$ function and the $f(Q)$ form and parameters, and then we reconstruct it using 55 $H(z)$ observation data. Firstly, we investigate the case where ordinary conservation law holds, and we reconstruct the $f(Q)$ function, which is very well described by a quadratic correction on top of Symmetric Teleparallel Equivalent of General Relativity. Proceeding to the general case, we consider two of the most studied $f(Q)$ models of the literature, namely the square-root and the exponential one. In both cases we reconstruct $\gamma(z)$, and we show that according to AIC and BIC information criteria its inclusion is favoured compared to both $\Lambda$CDM paradigm, as well as to the same $f(Q)$ models under the coincident gauge. This feature acts as an indication that $f(Q)$ cosmology should be studied beyond the coincident gauge.

  1. Hubble tension: the shape wall

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    Late-time modifications to the expansion history can raise H0 by at most about 2% (conservative) to 3.7% (permissive) if the CMB acoustic scale is fixed.

  2. Degenerate and connection-dependent cosmological sectors in f(Q,C) gravity

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Connection field equations force a degenerate f(R)-equivalent sector of f(Q,C) cosmology in which three geometric connections coincide, and only nonzero integration constants make the connections physically distinct.

  3. Constraints on Logarithmic Model Extensions of Symmetric Teleparallel Gravity

    astro-ph.CO 2025-08 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Two new logarithmic f(Q) gravity models fit current cosmological data and predict contrasting, testable deviations in the effective gravitational coupling and gravitational-wave damping.

  4. Is Dark Energy an Effective Manifestation of Non-equilibrium Thermodynamics? -- Insights from DESI

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

    Two phenomenological dark matter creation rates can reproduce the accelerated expansion of the universe and fit current background data as well as or slightly better than LambdaCDM for some DESI-based data combinations.

  5. Constraining Quintessential Inflation with ACT: A Gauss-Bonnet Gateway

    astro-ph.CO 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 4.5 of 10

    Exponential and sech Gauss–Bonnet couplings restore ACT-compatible ns and r for quintessential inflation, while tanh fails for a structural sign reason; reheating remains BBN-safe.

  6. Decoupling perturbations from background in $f(Q)$ gravity: the square-root correction and the impact on the $\sigma_8$ tension

    astro-ph.CO 2025-12 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    A sqrt(Q) correction in f(Q) gravity suppresses structure growth without altering the expansion history; fitted to RSD/DESI data it can bring sigma8 into agreement with Planck, at the cost of a sigma8-M degeneracy.

  7. Dynamical Dark Energy or Modified Gravity? Signatures in Gravitational Wave Propagation

    gr-qc 2025-09 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Reconstructing the dark energy density from DESI BAO and DESyr5 supernovae, then recasting it as f(Q) gravity, predicts a low-redshift gravitational wave damping ν≈0.18 (≳2σ from GR) only for the DESyr5 dataset.
