abstract

We investigate the generalized Chevallier-Polarski-Linder (CPL) parametrization, which contains the pivoting redshift $z_p$ as an extra free parameter. We use various data combinations from cosmic microwave background (CMB), baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO), redshift space distortion (RSD), weak lensing (WL), joint light curve analysis (JLA), cosmic chronometers (CC), and we include a Gaussian prior on the Hubble constant value, in order to extract the observational constraints on various quantities. For the case of free $z_p$ we find that for all data combinations it always remains unconstrained, and there is a degeneracy with the current value of the dark energy equation of state $w_0$. For the case where $z_p$ is fixed to specific values, and for the full data combination, we find that with increasing $z_p$ the mean value of $w_0$ slowly moves into the phantom regime, however the cosmological constant is always allowed within 1$\sigma$ confidence-level. However, the significant effect is that with increasing $z_p$ the correlations between $w_0$ and $w_a$ change from negative to positive, with the case $z_p =0.35$ corresponding to no correlation. This feature indeed justifies why a non-zero pivoting redshift should be taken into account.

  1. 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.

  2. Impact of CMB low-$\ell$ EE polarization data on dark energy parameterizations

    astro-ph.CO 2026-06 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Removing Planck's low-ℓ EE polarization data shifts A_s and τ_reio upward and makes three dark-energy parameterizations look more quintessence-like, with model-selection evidence depending on the dataset and prior.

  3. Constraints on Dark Energy Models Using Late Universe Probes

    astro-ph.CO 2025-06 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Using late-universe probes only, the authors find all dark energy models remain within 1-2 sigma of Lambda CDM, which wins the Bayesian model comparison, and confirm that DESI's LRG1 and LRG2 points drive the dynamica...

  4. An overview of what current data can (and cannot yet) say about evolving dark energy

    astro-ph.CO 2025-02 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    The apparent preference for evolving dark energy depends strongly on which supernova catalog and which BAO survey are used, and is not robust across all independent data combinations.

  5. In the Realm of the Hubble tension $-$ a Review of Solutions

    astro-ph.CO 2021-03 unverdicted novelty 2.0 of 10

    A review summarizing the Hubble constant tension and proposed solutions from new physics that restore agreement between Planck CMB data and local H0 measurements within 1-2 sigma.
