Fast radio burst (FRB) is a type of extragalactic radio signal characterized by millisecond duration, extremely high brightness temperature, and large dispersion measure. It remains a mystery in the universe. Advancements in instrumentation have led to the discovery of 816 FRB sources and 7622 bursts from 67 repeating FRBs now. This field is undergoing rapid development, rapidly advancing our understanding of the physics of FRBs as new observational data accumulates. The accumulation of data has also promoted our exploration of our universe. In this review, we summarize the statistical analysis and cosmological applications using large samples of FRBs, including the energy functions, the waiting time distributions of repeating FRBs, the probe of "missing baryons" and circumgalactic medium in the universe, measurements of cosmological parameters, exploration of the epoch of reionization history, and study of the gravitational lensing of FRBs.

  1. Dispersion Measure Distribution of Unlocalized Fast Radio Bursts as a Probe of the Hubble Constant

    astro-ph.CO 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 8.0

    The DM distribution of unlocalized FRBs yields H0 = 73.8 +14.0/-12.3 km/s/Mpc with 18% uncertainty.

  2. Pad\'e Approximants for cosmic Dispersion Measures

    astro-ph.HE 2025-12 conditional novelty 4.0

    Padé approximants reproduce the FRB diffuse dispersion measure integral to within a few percent while evaluating 2–17 times faster than numerical quadrature.

  3. Gravitational particle production, the cosmological tensions and fast radio bursts

    gr-qc 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 3.0

    Gravitational vacuum polarization explains the Hubble tension by increasing direct H0 measurements while leaving indirect ones unaffected, does not impact the sigma8 tension, and predicts FRB measurements match CMB/BA...
