Two-field axion-like early dark energy reduces Hubble tension to 1.5 sigma residual and improves high-ell CMB fits over single-field models.
Finite recombination thickness introduces Gaussian smoothing in ln k to the primordial power spectrum, producing non-trivial differences between TT and EE spectral indices that may be detectable in future CMB data.
Four Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet inflationary models are reconstructed from a chosen tensor-to-scalar ratio and shown to satisfy ACT and GW170817 constraints including scalar perturbation amplitude.
Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet inflation can yield positive spectral-index running with a viable era under ACT-like hints, while scalar-field and F(R) models largely cannot.
The authors introduce Thurston spacetimes as cosmological backgrounds, solve transfer equations for temperature and polarization patterns, and analyze symmetries in Stokes parameters to attempt isolation of individual geometries.
Galactic foreground residuals after component separation bias lensing reconstruction errors at cosmic-variance levels with Gaussian terms dominating, while non-Gaussian errors are three orders smaller; residuals become a leading error for high-efficiency delensing.

Galactic foreground residue biases in cosmic-microwave-background lensing-convergence reconstruction and delensing of B-mode maps
