We thus obtain constraints on the parameters of standard dark energy parameterizations, including $\\Lambda CDM$, and $H(z)$ deformation models such as $wCDM$ (constant equation of state $w$ of dark energy), and the CPL model (corresponding to the evolving dark energy equation-of-state parameter $w(z) = w_0 + w_a \\frac{z}{1+z}$). The fitted parameters include the dark matter density $\\Omega_{0m}$, the SnIa absolute magnitude $M$, the Hubble constant $H_0$ and the dark energy parameters (e.g., $w$ for $wCDM$). All models considered lead to a best-fit value of $M$ that is inconsistent with the locally determined value obtained by Cepheid calibrators ($M$ tension). We then use the best-fit dark energy parameters to reconstruct the quintessence Lagrangian that would be able to reproduce these best-fit parameterizations. Due to the derived late phantom behavior of the best-fit dark energy equation-of-state parameter $w(z)$, the reconstructed quintessence models have a negative kinetic term and are therefore plagued with instabilities.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2109.06256v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2109.06256v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"the-hubble-tension-the-m-crisis-of-late-time","repo_url":"https://github.com/tasostheodoropoulos/m_crisis","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
