Abstract

In this paper, we investigate a potential departure in the standard dark matter density evolution law, . The method involves considering a deformed evolution model, denoted as , and searching the presence of any deviation (). As one may see, is a general function that parametrizes a possible digression from the standard law. We use data of baryon acoustic oscillations, type I Supernovae luminosity distances, and galaxy cluster gas mass fraction observations to reconstruct through an approach that is not dependent on the cosmological model or the so-called Gaussian process regression. Unlike previous works, it enables us to investigate a possible deviation without using a specific function to describe it. We have obtained , the standard model scenario, within c.l. in all the considered cases.
