Recent observations of Cepheids in the Virgo cluster have bolstered the evidence that supports a Hubble constant in 70-90 km/s/Mpc range. This evidence, by and large, probes the expansion of the Universe within 100 Mpc. We investigate the…

A new non-parametric method based on Gaussian Processes was proposed recently to measure the Hubble constant $H_0$. The freedom in this approach comes in the chosen covariance function, which determines how smooth the process is and how…
We perform the improved constraints on the Hubble constant $H_0$ by using the model-independent method, Gaussian Processes. Utilizing the latest 36 $H(z)$ measurements, we obtain $H_0=69.21\pm3.72$ km s$^{-1}$ Mpc$^{-1}$, which is…
In cold dark matter models, a galaxy's dark matter halo is more spatially extended than its stars. However, even though the five well-constrained gravitational lenses with time delay measurements must have similar dark matter distributions,…
