We investigate whether a violation of the distance duality relation (DDR), $D_L(z) = (1+z)^2 D_A(z)$, connecting the angular diameter and luminosity distances, can explain the Hubble tension and alter the evidence for dynamical dark energy in recent cosmological observations. We constrain five phenomenological parameterisations of DDR violation using Baryon Acoustic Oscillation measurements from the DESI survey calibrated with the sound horizon derived from \textit{Planck} Cosmic Microwave Background data and the Pantheon+ Type Ia supernova (SNIa) catalogue calibrated with the supernova absolute magnitude from S$H_0$ES. We find that two toy models can resolve the tension: a constant offset in the DDR (equivalent to a shift in the calibration of the SNIa data), $D_L(z)/D_A(z)\simeq 0.925(1+z)^2$, which leaves the hint for evolving dark energy unaffected; or a change in the power-law redshift-dependence of the DDR, restricted to $z\lesssim 1$, $D_L(z)/D_A(z)\simeq(1+z)^{1.866}$, together with a {\it constant} phantom dark energy equation of state $w\sim -1.155$. The Bayesian evidence slightly favours the latter model. Our phenomenological approach motivates the investigation of physical models of DDR violation as a novel way to explain the Hubble tension.

  1. Unifying Early and Late Dark Energy: Dynamical Requirements and Obstructions

    astro-ph.CO 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Any unified early and late dark energy scenario with a single tracking scalar field requires a potential with three distinct slopes arranged in a steep-steeper-shallow hierarchy.

  2. Can Distance Duality Violation Save Late-time Solutions to the Hubble Tension?

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 accept novelty 6.0

    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...

  3. Geometric Constraints on the Pre-Recombination Expansion History from the Hubble Tension

    astro-ph.CO 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    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.

  4. Double the axions, half the tension: multi-field early dark energy eases the Hubble tension

    astro-ph.CO 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    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.

    Two model-independent methods applied to latest SN and BAO data find the cosmic distance duality relation consistent with observations within 1 sigma and no evidence of violation.

    astro-ph.CO 2026-03 conditional novelty 6.0

    DDE sound modes induce scale-dependent growth and halo bias comparable to massless neutrinos; multi-tracer P+B forecasts detect it for c_s^{2} ~ 10^{-2}–10^{-4}, while lower speeds produce ~10% drag on cluster growth-...

    astro-ph.CO 2025-10 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Relativistic N-body simulations of Lambda_s CDM produce a redshift-dependent crest in the matter power spectrum ratio, peaking at 20-25% near the transition and leaving a 15-20% uplift at z=0 on group scales.

    astro-ph.CO 2026-03 conditional novelty 5.5

    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.

    astro-ph.CO 2026-03 conditional novelty 5.5

    A background reconstruction maps prescribed ρ_de(z) histories to V(φ) and ranks analytic potentials by Bayesian evidence, with exponential preferred for CPL and shifted-tanh for sign-switching targets.
