Sensitivity of calibration-free DESI DR2 BAO--supernova constraints to a distance-duality tilt
Stéphane Fay, Mikel Artola, Leandros Perivolaropoulos
Recent measurements from DESI baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) have reported a moderate preference for dynamical dark energy, challenging the CDM paradigm. Nonetheless, such a…
Cosmographic Reconstruction of the Quintessence Potential in Scalar-Tensor Gravity

We generalise the cosmographic reconstruction programme of Chakraborty, Dunsby & Scherrer to scalar-tensor gravity. Working in the Jordan frame with a general non-minimal coupling…
On the origin of the BAOtr-DESI tension
Ioannis Pantos, Leandros Perivolaropoulos
The fiducial-independent angular/transverse BAO dataset, obtained from two-point angular correlation functions in thin redshift shells (hereafter BAOtr), systematically prefers sma…
Impact of the SNe Ia Magnitude Transition at 20 Mpc on Cosmological Parameter Estimation
Leandros Perivolaropoulos, Chrisostomos-Panagiotis Stamou
We investigate the impact of a late-time transition in the standardized absolute magnitude on the best-fit values of cosmological parameters using the Pantheon+ dataset. Extend…
Testing gravitational wave polarizations with LISA
Shingo Akama, Maxence Corman, Paola C. M. Delgado +16
In this paper we quantify the ability of the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) to test the presence of non-tensorial polarizations as well as modifications to the tensor on…
Status of the Tension: A 2026 Review of Probe Discrepancies
Ioannis Pantos, Leandros Perivolaropoulos
The parameter quantifies the amplitude of matter density fluctuations. A persistent discrepancy exists between early-universe CMB observations and…
Dissecting the Hubble tension: Insights from a diverse set of Sound Horizon-free H0 measurements
Ioannis Pantos, Leandros Perivolaropoulos
The Hubble tension is commonly framed as a discrepancy between local, late-time measurements favoring km s Mpc and early-time, Sound-Horizon-based me…
Addressing the DESI DR2 Phantom-Crossing Anomaly and Enhanced Tension with Reconstructed Scalar-Tensor Gravity
Dimitrios Efstratiou, Evangelos Achilleas Paraskevas, Leandros Perivolaropoulos
Recent cosmological data, including DESI DR2, highlight significant tensions within the CDM paradigm. When analyzed in the context of General Relativity (GR), the latest DESI da…
Large-scale peculiar velocities in the universe
Christos G. Tsagas, Leandros Perivolaropoulos, Kerkyra Asvesta
Observations have repeatedly confirmed the presence of large-scale peculiar motions in the universe, commonly referred to as ``bulk flows''. These are vast regions of the observabl…
BAO miscalibration cannot rescue late-time solutions to the Hubble tension
Davide Pedrotti, Luis A. Escamilla, Valerio Marra +2
Baryon Acoustic Oscillation (BAO) measurements play a key role in ruling out post-recombination solutions to the Hubble tension. However, because the data compression leading to th…
Hubble Tension and the G-step Model: Re-examination of Recent Constraints on Modified Local Physics
Leandros Perivolaropoulos, Ruchika
We critically examine recent claims challenging the viability of the G-step model (GSM) as a solution to the Hubble tension. The GSM proposes a 4 % increase in the effective…
