A Hubble diagram (HD) has recently been constructed in the redshift range 0<z<6.5 using a non-linear relation between the ultraviolet and X-ray luminosities of QSOs. The Type Ia SN HD has already provided a high-precision test of…
By using recent $H(z)$ and SNe Ia data, we reconstruct the evolution of kinematic parameters $H(z)$, $q(z)$, jerk and snap, using a model-independent, non-parametric method, namely, the Gaussian Processes. Throughout the present analysis,…

The cosmic curvature $\Omega_{K,0}$, which determines the spatial geometry of the universe, is an important parameter in modern cosmology. Any deviation from $\Omega_{K,0}=0$ would have a profound impact on primordial inflation paradigm and…
We present methods to rigorously extract parameter combinations that are constrained by data from posterior distributions. The standard approach uses linear methods that apply to Gaussian distributions. We show the limitations of the linear…

Direct measurements of Hubble parameters $H(z)$ are very useful for cosmological model parameters inference. Based on them, Sahni, Shafieloo and Starobinski introduced a two-point diagnostic $Omh^2(z_i, z_j)$ as an interesting tool for…

Marginal likelihoods for the cosmic expansion rates are evaluated using the `Constitution' data of 397 supernovas, thereby updating the results in some previous works. Even when beginning with a very strong prior probability that favors an…
It has been known for over three decades that the monochromatic X-ray and UV luminosities in quasars are correlated, though non-linearly. This offers the possibility of using high-z quasars as standard candles for cosmological testing. In…
The Hubble tension is usually expressed as a discrepancy between the low H_0 inferred from Planck CMB data within base \LambdaCDM and the higher value obtained from late-time distance-ladder measurements. This scalar comparison compresses…
We test both the FLRW geometry and $\Lambda$CDM cosmology in a model independent way by reconstructing the Hubble function $H(z)$, the comoving distance $D(z)$ and the growth of structure $f\sigma_8(z)$ using the most recent data available.…
We perform a cosmographic analysis using several cosmological observables such as the luminosity distance moduli, the volume distance, the angular diameter distance and the Hubble parameter. These quantities are determined using different…
Weighted mean and median statistics techniques are used to combine 23 independent lower redshift, $z<1.04$, Hubble parameter, $H(z)$, measurements and determine binned forms of $H(z)$. When these are combined with 5 higher redshift,…
We present a proof-of-principle determination of the Hubble parameter $H(z)$ from photometric data, obtaining a determination at an effective redshift of $z=0.75$ ($0.65<z<0.85$) of $H(0.75) =105.0\pm 7.9(stat)\pm 7.3(sys)$ km s$^{-1}$…
