abstract

We analyse the $f(R)$ gravity in the so-called Jordan frame, as implemented to the isotropic Universe dynamics. The goal of the present study is to show that, according to recent data analyses of the supernovae Ia Pantheon sample, it is possible to account for an effective redshift dependence of the Hubble constant. This is achieved via the dynamics of a non-minimally coupled scalar field, as it emerges in the $f(R)$ gravity. We face the question both from an analytical and purely numerical point of view, following the same technical paradigm. We arrive to establish that the expected decay of the Hubble constant with the redshift $z$ is ensured by a form of the scalar field potential, which remains essentially constant for $z\lesssim0.3$, independently if this request is made a priori, as in the analytical approach, or obtained a posteriori, when the numerical procedure is addressed. Thus, we demonstrate that an $f(R)$ dark energy model is able to account for an apparent variation of the Hubble constant due to the rescaling of the Einstein constant by the $f(R)$ scalar mode.

  1. Early- and late-time constraints on Wald-Gauss-Bonnet topological dark energy and implications for the $H_0$ and $S_8$ tensions

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A joint CMB, BAO, and supernova fit mildly prefers a non-zero Wald-Gauss-Bonnet dark-energy term (~3σ with SH0ES included), raising H0 from 68.5 to 69.8 km/s/Mpc and easing the Hubble tension by ~0.9σ at the cost of a...

  2. BAO miscalibration cannot rescue late-time solutions to the Hubble tension

    astro-ph.CO 2025-10 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    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.

  3. Quasar cosmology II: joint analyses with Cosmic Microwave Background

    astro-ph.CO 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Quasar, supernova, BAO, DES, and CMB data are jointly compatible only in an interacting dark-energy model, not in Lambda-CDM, wCDM, or CPL.

  4. Exponential $f(R)$ cosmology with massive neutrinos as a dynamical dark energy framework

    gr-qc 2025-11 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Exponential f(R) gravity with massive neutrinos fits current expansion data about as well as ΛCDM and yields slightly different H0 and Σmν constraints, but does not eliminate the Hubble tension.

  5. Direct detection of solar chameleons with electron recoil data from XENONnT

    hep-ph 2025-11 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    XENONnT electron-recoil data bound solar chameleons to log10 β_eff < −6.9, independent of the potential index n for inverse power-law chameleons at the dark-energy scale.

  6. Hubble tension: a short review of theoretical explanations

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 accept novelty 4.0 of 10

    A comprehensive review finds no theoretical Hubble-tension solution yet passes all consistency tests; new early-dark-energy chains reach high H0 only when the SH0ES calibration is added.

  7. Investigating $f(R)$-Inflation: background evolution and constraints

    astro-ph.CO 2025-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    A Jordan-frame f(R) model with particle creation during inflation is fitted to DESI and Pantheon+ data, yielding H0=71.04 and a claimed reduction of the Hubble tension to about 1.6-2.8 sigma.

  8. Decay of dark energy into dark matter in a metric $f(R)$ gravity: effective running Hubble constant

    astro-ph.CO 2025-06 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    A metric f(R) gravity model with dark energy decaying into dark matter produces a running Hubble constant that tracks the binned supernova decline better than a power law, but the fit is poor and does not resolve the ...
