abstract

Recent measurements of Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Survey (DESI DR2), combined with data from the cosmic microwave background (CMB) and Type Ia supernovae (SNe), challenge the $\Lambda$-Cold Dark Matter ($\Lambda$CDM) paradigm. They indicate a potential evolution in the dark energy equation of state (EoS), $w(z)$, as suggested by analyses that employ parametric models. In this paper, we use a model-independent approach known as high performance symbolic regression (PySR) to reconstruct $w(z)$ directly from observational data, allowing us to bypass prior assumptions about the underlying cosmological model. Our findings confirm that the DESI DR2 data alone agree with the $\Lambda$CDM model ($w(z) = -1$) at the redshift range considered. Additionally, when combining DESI data with existing compilations of SN distance measurements, such as Patheon+ and DESY5, we observe no deviation from the $\Lambda$CDM model within $3\sigma$ (C.L.) for the interval of values of present-day matter density parameter $\Omega_m$ and the sound horizon at the drag epoch $r_d$ currently constrained by observational data. Therefore, similarly to the DESI DR1 case, these results suggest that it is still premature to claim statistically significant evidence for a dynamical EoS or deviations from the $\Lambda$CDM model based on the current DESI data in combination with supernova measurements.

  1. Breaking the Dark Sector Degeneracy with Nonparametric Expansion--Growth Reconstruction

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

    Joint nonparametric expansion–growth reconstruction finds no significant dark-sector interaction or dark-energy dynamics, remaining consistent with ΛCDM over 0≲z≲2.

  2. Inverse-k Primordial Oscillations from a Symbolic Regression Search

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

    Symbolic regression on Planck and Planck+ACT+SPT independently selects an inverse-k primordial oscillation cos(B/k)≈cos(4/k) that weakly outperforms linear and log templates.

  3. Do we really need alternatives to the $\omega_0\omega_a$CDM parameterization after the DESI DR2?

    astro-ph.CO 2026-08 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    In a common physically motivated pivot basis, the standard CPL parameterization is mildly preferred over the fafbCDM density expansion and reproduces quintessence backgrounds at least as well.

  4. Comparison of symbolic regression algorithms in Star/galaxy/quasar separation

    astro-ph.IM 2026-02 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    On SDSS DR17 redshift data, a multi-view symbolic regression expression achieves Cohen's κ≈0.895, comparable to random forests, SVMs, and MLPs trained on the same single feature.

  5. Revisiting cosmic acceleration with DESI BAO

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

    Constraints from DESI BAO, Planck CMB, and three SN catalogs yield a negative jerk parameter at z=0 in the CPL model, suggesting cosmic acceleration is slowing.

  6. Observational Constraints on Scalar Field--Matter Interaction in Weyl Integrable Spacetime

    gr-qc 2025-06 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A Weyl Integrable Spacetime model with one extra parameter fits current late-time cosmological data slightly better than Lambda-CDM, with weak to moderate statistical preference.

  7. Revisiting the CMB homogeneity scale: low multipoles removal effect and extragalactic foreground masking

    astro-ph.CO 2025-05 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Removing low multipoles from Planck CMB maps and from Lambda CDM simulations removes the homogeneity scale discrepancy; the paper attributes this to the low quadrupole, but its maps labeled ell>=2 retain the quadrupole.
