We study a class of early dark energy models which has substantial amount of dark energy in the early epoch of the universe. We examine the impact of the early dark energy fluctuations on the growth of structure and the CMB power spectrum in the linear approximation. Furthermore we investigate the influence of the interaction between the early dark energy and the dark matter and its effect on the structure growth and CMB. We finally constrain the early dark energy model parameters and the coupling between dark sectors by confronting to different observations.

We consider the models of vacuum energy interacting with cold dark matter in this study, in which the coupling can change sigh during the cosmological evolution. We parameterize the running coupling $b$ by the form $b(a)=b_0a+b_e(1-a)$, where at the early-time the coupling is given by a constant $b_{e}$ and today the coupling is described by another constant $b_{0}$. We explore six specific models with (i) $Q(a)=b(a)H_0rho_0$, (ii) $Q(a)=b(a)H_0rho_{rm de}$, (iii) $Q(a)=b(a)H_0rho_{rm c}$, (iv) $Q(a)=b(a)Hrho_0$, (v) $Q(a)=b(a)Hrho_{rm de}$, and (vi) $Q(a)=b(a)Hrho_{rm c}$. The current observational data sets we use to constrain the models include the JLA compilation of type Ia supernova data, the Planck 2015 distance priors data of cosmic microwave background observation, the baryon acoustic oscillations measurements, and the Hubble constant direct measurement. We find that, for all the models, we have $b_0<0$ and $b_e>0$ at around the 1$sigma$ level, and $b_0$ and $b_e$ are in extremely strong anti-correlation. Our results show that the coupling changes sign during the evolution at about the 1$sigma$ level, i.e., the energy transfer is from dark matter to dark energy when dark matter dominates the universe and the energy transfer is from dark energy to dark matter when dark energy dominates the universe.
The Hubble tension might be resolved by injecting a new energy component, called Early Dark Energy (EDE), prior to recombination. An Anti-de Sitter (AdS) phase around recombination can make the injected energy decay faster, which thus allows a higher EDE fraction (so larger $H_0$) while prevents degrading the CMB fit. In this work, we test the AdS-EDE model with CMB and Large-Scale Structure (LSS) data. Our CMB dataset consists of low-$ell$ part of Planck TT spectrum and SPTpol polarization and lensing measurements, since this dataset predicts the CMB lensing effect consistent with $Lambda$CDM expectation. Combining it with BAO and Pantheon data, we find the bestfit values $H_0=71.92$ km/s/Mpc and $H_0=73.29$ km/s/Mpc without and with the SH0ES prior, respectively. Including cosmic shear and galaxy clusters data, we have $H_0=71.87$ km/s/Mpc and $S_8=0.785$, i.e. only $1.3sigma$ discrepancy with direct $S_8$ measurement.
In this work we have used the recent cosmic chronometers data along with the latest estimation of the local Hubble parameter value, $H_0$ at 2.4% precision as well as the standard dark energy probes, such as the Supernovae Type Ia, baryon acoustic oscillation distance measurements, and cosmic microwave background measurements (PlanckTT $+$ lowP) to constrain a dark energy model where the dark energy is allowed to interact with the dark matter. A general equation of state of dark energy parametrized by a dimensionless parameter `$beta$ is utilized. From our analysis, we find that the interaction is compatible with zero within the 1$sigma$ confidence limit. We also show that the same evolution history can be reproduced by a small pressure of the dark matter.
Present-day temperature $T_0$ of cosmic microwave background has been precisely measured by the FIRAS experiment. We identify that the early dark energy (EDE) (non-negligible around matter-radiation equality) scenario can remain compatible with the FIRAS result, while lifting the Hubble constant $H_0$. We perform Monte Carlo Markov chain analysis to confirm our observations. We also present an $alpha$-attractor Anti-de Sitter (AdS) model of EDE, in which the AdS depth is consistently varied in the Monte Carlo Markov chain analysis. We found that our datasets weakly hinted the existence of an AdS phase near recombination with $H_0sim 73$km/s/Mpc at 1$sigma$ region in the best-fit model.
An axion-like field comprising $sim 10%$ of the energy density of the universe near matter-radiation equality is a candidate to resolve the Hubble tension; this is the early dark energy (EDE) model. However, as shown in Hill et al. (2020), the model fails to simultaneously resolve the Hubble tension and maintain a good fit to both cosmic microwave background (CMB) and large-scale structure (LSS) data. Here, we use redshift-space galaxy clustering data to sharpen constraints on the EDE model. We perform the first EDE analysis using the full-shape power spectrum likelihood from the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS), based on the effective field theory (EFT) of LSS. The inclusion of this likelihood in the EDE analysis yields a $25%$ tighter error bar on $H_0$ compared to primary CMB data alone, yielding $H_0 = 68.54^{+0.52}_{-0.95}$ km/s/Mpc ($68%$ CL). In addition, we constrain the maximum fractional energy density contribution of the EDE to $f_{rm EDE} < 0.072$ ($95%$ CL). We explicitly demonstrate that the EFT BOSS likelihood yields much stronger constraints on EDE than the standard BOSS likelihood. Including further information from photometric LSS surveys,the constraints narrow by an additional $20%$, yielding $H_0 = 68.73^{+0.42}_{-0.69}$ km/s/Mpc ($68%$ CL) and $f_{rm EDE}<0.053$ ($95%$ CL). These bounds are obtained without including local-universe $H_0$ data, which is in strong tension with the CMB and LSS, even in the EDE model. We also refute claims that MCMC analyses of EDE that omit SH0ES from the combined dataset yield misleading posteriors. Finally, we demonstrate that upcoming Euclid/DESI-like spectroscopic galaxy surveys can greatly improve the EDE constraints. We conclude that current data preclude the EDE model as a resolution of the Hubble tension, and that future LSS surveys can close the remaining parameter space of this model.
