Measuring cosmic curvature with non-CMB observations
read the original abstract
The cosmic curvature $\Omega_{K}$ is an important parameter related to the inflationary cosmology and the ultimate fate of the universe. In this work, we adopt the non-CMB observations to constrain $\Omega_{K}$ in the $\Lambda$CDM model and its extensions. The DESI baryon acoustic oscillation, DES type Ia supernova, cosmic chronometer, and strong gravitational lensing time delay data are considered. We find that the data combination favors an open universe in the $\Lambda$CDM model, specifically $\Omega_{K}=0.108\pm0.056$ at the $1\sigma$ confidence level, which is in $2.6\sigma$ tension with the Planck CMB result supporting our universe being slightly closed. In the $\Lambda$CDM extensions, the data combination is consistent with a spatially flat universe. However, the central value of $\Omega_{K}$ is positive and has a significant deviation from zero. We adopt the Akaike information criterion to compare different cosmological models. The result shows that non-flat models fit the observational data better than the flat $\Lambda$CDM model, which adds evidence to the argument that flat $\Lambda$CDM is not the ultimate model of cosmology.

Evidence for deviation in gravitational light deflection from general relativity at cosmological scales with KiDS-Legacy and CMB lensing
KiDS-Legacy weak lensing plus CMB data yields a 3 sigma deviation in light deflection from GR in a Lambda CDM background, with the signal driven by large-scale CMB lensing amplitudes.

Inflation, Open Universes, and Dark Energy
A slightly open universe with Ω_k ≈ 3×10^{-3} pulls n_s down to ~0.969, reconciling plateau inflation models with combined CMB and DESI data.

Model-independent H0 from GWTC-4 standard sirens and TDCOSMO 2025 strong lensing time delays
Combining GWTC-4 standard sirens with TDCOSMO2025 lensing data under the distance sum rule yields H0 = 83.78 +12.53/-10.23 km/s/Mpc (13.6% precision) in one configuration, consistent with both Planck and SH0ES.

Model-independent late-universe measurements of $H_0$ and $\Omega_K$ with the parametrization based on cosmic age-improved inverse distance ladder
A cosmic-age-based inverse distance ladder with DESI DR2, DESY5, SGL, CC and GRB data gives H0=71.59±0.94 km/s/Mpc and ΩK=0.001±0.038.

Synergy between CSST and third-generation gravitational-wave detectors: Inferring cosmological parameters using cross-correlation of dark sirens and galaxies
Forecasts that cross-correlating 3G GW dark sirens with CSST photometric galaxies yields 1.04% precision on H0 and 2.04% on Omega_m while also constraining GW clustering bias.

The open-Universe signal: A model artifact rather than genuine curvature
The mild open-universe signal in late-Universe data is an artifact of assuming the basic ΛCDM model rather than evidence for genuine spatial curvature.

Evidence of dynamical dark energy found via the DESI DR2 Lyman$\alpha$ forest
Fitting seven dark-energy parameterizations to DESI DR2 Lyman-alpha BAO plus CMB, galaxy BAO, and three supernova samples yields 2–2.5σ hints of evolving dark energy (w0>−1, wa<0) that weaken below 2σ when supernovae ...

Alleviating the $H_0$ tension through the interacting dark energy model from quantum gravitational field theory in light of DESI DR2
With DESI DR2 BAO plus CMB and a SH0ES prior, the two-parameter eeΛCDM model gives δΛ=-0.41±0.14 and H0=71.9±1.0, easing the Hubble tension to 0.8σ, but SN datasets erase the signal.
