abstract
Some cosmological models with non-negligible dark energy fractions in particular windows of the pre-recombination epoch are capable of alleviating the Hubble tension quite efficiently, while keeping the good description of the data that are used to build the cosmic inverse distance ladder. There has been an intensive discussion in the community on whether these models enhance the power of matter fluctuations, leading {\it de facto} to a worsening of the tension with the large-scale structure measurements. We address this pivotal question in the context of several early dark energy (EDE) models, considering also in some cases a coupling between dark energy and dark matter, and the effect of massive neutrinos. We fit them using the Planck 2018 likelihoods, the supernovae of Type Ia from the Pantheon compilation and data on baryon acoustic oscillations. We find that ultra-light axion-like (ULA) EDE can actually alleviate the $H_0$ tension without increasing the values of $\sigma_{12}$ with respect to those found in the $\Lambda$CDM, whereas EDE with an exponential potential does not have any impact on the tensions. A coupling in the dark sector tends to enhance the clustering of matter, and the data limit a lot the influence of massive neutrinos, since the upper bounds on the sum of their masses are too close to those obtained in the standard model. We find that in the best case, namely ULA, the Hubble tension is reduced to $\sim 2\sigma$.

Hubble tension: the shape wall
Late-time modifications to the expansion history can raise H0 by at most about 2% (conservative) to 3.7% (permissive) if the CMB acoustic scale is fixed.

The $H_0$ world cup. II. A comprehensive competition between proposed Hubble tension solutions
Against a common 2025-26 dataset (Planck PR4, ACT DR6, SPT-3G, DESI DR2, Pantheon+), early dark energy and early modified gravity models win the H0 competition (~3σ residual tension), while radiation and late-time sol...

BAO miscalibration cannot rescue late-time solutions to the Hubble tension
Even after rescaling BAO data to prefer H0≈73 km/s/Mpc, none of six tested late-time dark-energy models can resolve the Hubble tension once unanchored SNeIa and CMB geometry are included.

The $H_0$ World Cup. I. Summary of the baseline group stage results
In a systematic head-to-head analysis, early dark energy and early modified gravity models reduce the Hubble tension to about 3σ and are favored over ΛCDM, while radiation and late-time alternatives are not.

Signatures of Modified Gravity on Linear Scales in a Dynamical Dark Energy Background
Using Planck, DESI, supernovae, and redshift-space distortions, the authors infer that modified gravity, if present, must act only below ~30 Mpc and cannot modify the large scales previously considered.

Dark Energy Is Not That Into You: Variable Couplings after DESI DR2 BAO
With DESI DR2 data, one interacting dark sector model with a time-dependent coupling shows a nonzero coupling at more than 95% CL, but Bayesian evidence still favors Lambda-CDM.
