Abstract

Recently, it has been proposed that Hubble tension can be addressed in the Λ\LambdaCDM model if the lookback time approach is considered on the redshift zz measured. From this interesting proposal, the lookback time evolution seems to match the observational values of the current Hubble parameter H0H_0 at any zz. In this comment, we discuss that using a lookback time approach function H0(z)H_{0}^{(z)}, does not address the H0H_0 tension issue completely. It has been studied that the growing tension among early-time and local measurements of H0H_0 are possible concealed sources of systematic error in observations or modifications (or extensions) to the standard Λ\LambdaCDM model. Furthermore, we show that the age of the Universe is sensitive to both Ωm\Omega_m and H0H_0 in flat Λ\LambdaCDM-like cosmological models.
