Fitting a one-parameter modified gravity model to Pantheon+, DES, and BAO data gives mixed evidence: the n=6 version is preferred by information criteria in most combinations, but n=4 and n=10 are often disfavored, and the abstract overstates the result.

abstract
We study the possibility that inflation is driven by a massive vector field with SO(3) global symmetry nonminimally coupled to gravity. From an E^3-invariant Robertson-Walker metric we propose an Ansatz for the vector field, allowing us to study the evolution of the system. We study the behaviour of the equations of motion using the methods of the theory of dynamical systems and find exponential inflationary regimes.

Is cosmological data suggesting a nonminimal coupling between matter and gravity?
Fitting a one-parameter modified gravity model to Pantheon+, DES, and BAO data gives mixed evidence: the n=6 version is preferred by information criteria in most combinations, but n=4 and n=10 are often disfavored, and the abstract overstates the result.
