Hubble tension is routinely presented as a mismatch between the Hubble constant $H_0$ determined locally and a value inferred from the flat $\Lambda$CDM cosmology. In essence, the tension boils down to a disagreement between two numbers.…

Recent cosmological surveys and datasets have highlighted a variety of tensions to the concordance model of our universe, $\Lambda$CDM. Of particular interest is the Hubble tension, the $5.5\sigma$ discrepancy between measurements of the…

Constraints on the cosmological concordance model parameters from observables at different redshifts are usually obtained using the locally measured value of the gravitational constant $G_N$. Here we relax this assumption, by considering…

Observers have demonstrated that it is now feasible to measure the cosmic microwave background (CMB) temperature at high redshifts. We explore the possible constraints on cosmology which might ultimately be derived from such measurements.…

The recent local measurement of the Hubble constant based on the distance-ladder method has reached a $1.91\%$ precision, but this result is in tension with the early-universe measurements at the more than 4$\sigma$ level, bringing a crisis…

One of the most compelling tasks of modern cosmology is to constrain the expansion history of the Universe, since this measurement can give insights on the nature of dark energy and help to estimate cosmological parameters. In this letter…

Recently, it has been proposed that Hubble tension can be addressed in the $\Lambda$CDM model if the lookback time approach is considered on the redshift $z$ measured. From this interesting proposal, the lookback time evolution seems to…

In this Letter we propose an interpretation of the Hubble tension as an effect of the scale-running of cosmological parameters and fundamental constants, as the Newton's constant $G$ and the cosmological constant $\Lambda$. Namely, the…

We investigate whether the two cosmological discrepancies on the Hubble constant ($H_0$) and the matter fluctuation parameter ($\sigma_8$) are suggesting and compatible with the existence of an additional one on the matter density. Knowing…
