We examine k-essence models in which the Lagrangian p is a function only of the derivatives of a scalar field phi and does not depend explicity on phi. The evolution of phi for an arbitrary functional form for p can be given in terms of an exact analytic solution. For quite general conditions on the functional form of p, such models can evolve to a state characterized by a density scaling with the scale factor as rho = rho_0 + rho_1(a/a_0)^{-3}, but with a sound speed c_s^2 << 1 at all times. Such models can serve as a unified model for dark matter and dark energy, while avoiding the problems of the generalized Chaplygin gas models, which are due to a non-negligible sound speed in these models. A dark energy component with c_s << 1 serves to suppress cosmic microwave background fluctuations on large angular scales.

The silent dark sector: a field-theory approach to unified dark fluids with vanishing speed of sound
All vanishing-speed-of-sound TDiff scalar theories reduce to a two-parameter mimetic action describing the dark sector as interacting dust plus vacuum; a quadratic-potential example tracks the DESI CPL background.

Resolving the Planck-DESI tension by nonminimally coupled quintessence
Non-minimally coupled quintessence resolves the Planck-DESI Ω_m tension at >3σ while the effective equation of state stays above w=-1 and other tensions on neutrino mass and growth rate are relieved.

A parameter scan of constant-roll β-exponential inflation in Palatini R² gravity claims agreement with ACT/Planck contours, but the derivation is undermined by algebraic sign errors and an absent non-Gaussianity calculation.
