The cosmon model for an asymptotically vanishing time-dependent cosmological ``constant''
read the original abstract
We investigate the coupled system of gravity and a scalar with exponential potential. The energy momentum tensor of the scalar field induces a time-dependent cosmological ``constant''. This adjusts itself dynamically to become in the ``late'' universe (including today) proportional to the energy density of matter and radiation. Possible consequences for the present cosmology are shortly discussed. We also address the question of naturalness of the cosmon model.

Non-minimally coupled quintessence with sign-switching interaction
A new quintessence model with non-minimal coupling produces an effective sign-switching interaction that fits current data better than LambdaCDM or w0waCDM and accounts for late-time dark energy weakening without phan...

Dark energy from string theory: an introductory review
String theory imposes constraints on dark energy but permits various construction attempts for de Sitter vacua and single-field exponential quintessence models despite obstructions.
