Late-time cosmological constraints on three holographic dark energy models with DESI DR2 BAO and Type Ia supernovae

Jiayuan Huang, Tonghua Liu, Chenggang Shao

We constrain three holographic-inspired dark energy models, namely holographic dark energy (HDE), agegraphic dark energy (ADE), and Ricci dark energy (RDE), using late-time observa…
