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.
Positive running of the spectral index is achievable in Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity with viable inflation, unlike standard scalar field and F(R) models which face challenges.
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
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.
