Polarization of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) is sensitive to new physics violating parity symmetry, such as the presence of a pseudoscalar "axionlike" field. Such a field may be responsible for early dark energy (EDE), which is…
The Hubble tension arises from different observations between the late-time and early Universe. We explore a new model with dark fluid, called the exponential Acoustic Dark Energy (eADE) model, to relieve the Hubble tension. The eADE model…
Measurements of the current expansion rate of the Universe, $H_0$, using standard candles, disagree with those derived from observations of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). This discrepancy, known as the Hubble tension, is substantial…

Early Dark Energy (EDE) is a prominent model to resolve the Hubble tension, which employs a dynamical axion with a periodic potential. In this work, we take first steps towards the embedding of this model into stable compactifications of…
It is accepted in modern cosmology that the scalar field responsible for the inflationary stage of the early Universe is completely transformed into matter. It is assumed that the accelerated expansion is currently driven by dark energy…
We propose a dark energy model based on the physics of critical phenomena which is consistent with both the Planck's CMB and the Riess et al.'s local Hubble measurements. In this model the dark energy density behaves like the magnetization…
Some cosmological models with non-negligible dark energy fractions in particular windows of the pre-recombination epoch are capable of alleviating the Hubble tension quite efficiently, while keeping the good description of the data that are…
We investigate a specific emergent dark energy scenario, known as critically emergent dark energy (CEDE), in which dark energy is effectively absent in the early Universe and becomes dynamically relevant only after a critical cosmic epoch…

The considerable difference between early and late universe measurements of the Hubble constant, called the Hubble tension, poses a potential challenge to the standard $\Lambda$CDM cosmological model. We examine an interacting dark…
This work examines an early dark energy (EDE) scenario in the context of $F(R)$ gravity. EDE is introduced to alleviate the Hubble tension by temporarily injecting approximately $10\%$ of the energy fraction around the matter-radiation…
Here we test different models of dark energy beyond the standard cosmological constant scenario. We start considering the CPL parameterization of the equation of state (EOS), then we consider a dark energy scalar field (Quintessense).…
JWST has revealed a large population of ultra-violet (UV)-bright galaxies at $z\gtrsim 10$ and possibly overly massive galaxies at $z\gtrsim 7$, challenging standard galaxy formation models in the $\Lambda$CDM cosmology. We use an empirical…
The tension between measurements of the Hubble constant obtained at different redshifts may provide a hint of new physics active in the relatively early universe, around the epoch of matter-radiation equality. A leading paradigm to resolve…

We introduce a unified model of early and late dark energy. We call it {\it quintessential early dark energy} model where early and late dark energy are explained by a single scalar field {\it i.e.}, two different energy scales are related…
The $\Lambda$CDM model faces significant challenges, including an incomplete understanding of the dark sector and persistent tensions in the Hubble constant and the clustering amplitude. To address these issues, we propose a general…
