In this paper, we present a model-independent approach to calibrate the largest quasar sample. Calibrating quasar samples is essentially constraining the parameters of the linear relation between the $log$ of the ultraviolet (UV) and X-ray luminosities. This calibration allows quasars to be used as standardized candles. There is a strong correlation between the parameters characterizing the quasar luminosity relation and the cosmological distances inferred from using quasars as standardized candles. We break this degeneracy by using Gaussian process regression to model-independently reconstruct the expansion history of the Universe from the latest type Ia supernova observations. Using the calibrated quasar dataset, we further reconstruct the expansion history up to redshift of $zsim 7.5$. Finally, we test the consistency between the calibrated quasar sample and the standard $rm{Lambda}CDM$ model based on the posterior probability distribution of the GP hyperparameters. Our results show that the quasar sample is in good agreement with the standard $rm{Lambda}CDM$ model in the redshift range of the supernova, despite of mildly significant deviations taking place at higher redshifts. Fitting the standard $rm{Lambda}CDM$ model to the calibrated quasar sample, we obtain a high value of the matter density parameter $Omega_m = 0.382^{+0.045}_{-0.042}$, which is marginally consistent with the constraints from other cosmological observations.

The cosmic curvature ($Omega_k$) is a fundamental parameter for cosmology. In this paper, we propose an improved model-independent method to constrain the cosmic curvature, which is geometrically related to the Hubble parameter $H(z)$ and luminosity
distance $D_L(z)$. Using the currently largest $H(z)$ sample from the well-known cosmic chronometers, as well as the luminosity distance $D_L(z)$ from the relation between the UV and X-ray luminosities of 1598 quasars and the newly-compiled Pantheon sample including 1048 SNe Ia, 31 independent measurements of the cosmic curvature $Omega_k(z)$ can be expected covering the redshift range of $0.07<z<2$. Our estimation of $Omega_k(z)$ is fully compatible with flat Universe at the current level of observational precision. Meanwhile, we find that, for the Hubble diagram of 1598 quasars as a new type of standard candle, the spatial curvature is constrained to be $Omega_k=0.08pm0.31$. For the latest Pantheon sample of SNe Ia observations, we obtain $Omega_k= -0.02pm0.14$. Compared to other approaches aiming for model-independent estimations of spatial curvature, our analysis also achieves constraints with competitive precision. More interestingly, it is suggested that the reconstructed curvature $Omega_k$ is negative in the high redshift region, which is also consistent with the results from the model-dependent constraints in the literature. Such findings are confirmed by our reconstructed evolution of $Omega_k(z)$, in the framework of a model-independent method of Gaussian processes (GP) without assuming a specific form.
An important concern in the application of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) to cosmology is that the calibration of GRB luminosity/energy relations depends on the cosmological model, due to the lack of a sufficient low-redshift GRB sample. In this paper, we p
resent a new method to calibrate GRB relations in a cosmology-independent way. Since objects at the same redshift should have the same luminosity distance and since the distance moduli of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) obtained directly from observations are completely cosmology independent, we obtain the distance modulus of a GRB at a given redshift by interpolating from the Hubble diagram of SNe Ia. Then we calibrate seven GRB relations without assuming a particular cosmological model and construct a GRB Hubble diagram to constrain cosmological parameters. From the 42 GRBs at $1.4<zle6.6$, we obtain $Omega_{rm M}=0.25_{-0.05}^{+0.04}$, $Omega_{Lambda}=0.75_{-0.04}^{+0.05}$ for the flat $Lambda$CDM model, and for the dark energy model with a constant equation of state $w_0=-1.05_{-0.40}^{+0.27}$, which is consistent with the concordance model in a 1-$sigma$ confidence region.
Recently, two classes of quasar samples were identified, which are promising as new cosmological probes extending to higher redshifts. The first sample uses the nonlinear relation between the ultraviolet and X-ray luminosities of quasars to derive lu
minosity distances, whereas the linear sizes of compact radio quasars in the second sample can serve as standardized rulers, providing angular-diameter distances. In this study, under the assumption of a flat universe, we refreshed the calibration of multiple measurements of high-redshift quasars (in the framework of a cosmological-model-independent method with the newest Hubble parameters data). Furthermore, we placed constraints on four models that characterize the cosmic equation of state ($w$). The obtained results show that: 1) the two quasar samples could provide promising complementary probes at much higher redshifts, whereas compact radio quasars perform better than ultraviolet and X-ray quasars at the current observational level; 2) strong degeneracy between the cosmic equation of state ($w$) and Hubble constant ($H_0$) is revealed, which highlights the importance of independent determination of $H_0$ from time-delay measurements of strongly lensed Quasars; 3)together with other standard ruler probes, such as baryon acoustic oscillation distance measurements, the combined QSO+BAO measurements are consistent with the standard $Lambda$CDM model at a constant equation of state $w=-1$; 4) ranking the cosmological models, the polynomial parametrization gives a rather good fit among the four cosmic-equation-of-state models, whereas the Jassal-Bagla-Padmanabhan (JBP) parametrization is substantially penalized by the Akaike Information Criterion and Bayesian Information Criterion criterion.
In the current framework, the standard parametrization of our Universe is the so-called Lambda Cold Dark Matter ({Lambda}CDM) model. Recently, Risaliti & Lusso (2019) have shown a ~4{sigma} tension with the {Lambda}CDM model through a model-independe
nt parametrization of a Hubble Diagram of supernovae Ia (SNe Ia) from the JLA survey and quasars. Model-independent approaches and independent samples over a wide redshift range are key to testing this tension and any possible systematics. Here we present an analysis of a combined Hubble Diagram of SNe Ia, quasars, and gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) to check the agreement of the quasar and GRB cosmological parameters at high redshifts (z>2) and to test the concordance flat {Lambda}CDM model with improved statistical accuracy. We build a Hubble diagram with SNe Ia from the Pantheon sample (Scolnic et al. 2018), quasars from the Risaliti & Lusso (2019) sample, and GRBs from the Demianski et al. (2017a) sample, where quasars are standardised through the observed non-linear relation between their ultraviolet and X-ray emission and GRBs through the correlation between the spectral peak energy and the isotropic-equivalent radiated energy (the so-called Amati relation). We fit the data with cosmographic models consisting of a fourth-order logarithmic polynomial and a fifth-order linear polynomial, and compare the results with the expectations from a flat {Lambda}CDM model. We confirm the tension between the best fit cosmographic parameters and the {Lambda}CDM model at ~4{sigma} with SNe Ia and quasars, at ~2{sigma} with SNe Ia and GRBs, and at >4{sigma} with the whole SNe Ia+quasars+GRB data set. The completely independent high-redshift Hubble diagrams of quasars and GRBs are fully consistent with each other, strongly suggesting that the deviation from the standard model is not due to unknown systematic effects but to new physics.
In this paper, we investigate the cosmic anisotropy from the SN-Q sample, consisting of the Pantheon sample and quasars, by employing the hemisphere comparison (HC) method and the dipole fitting (DF) method. Compared to the Pantheon sample, the new s
ample has a larger redshift range, a more homogeneous distribution, and a larger sample size. For the HC method, we find that the maximum anisotropy level is $AL_{max}=0.142pm0.026$ in the direction ($l$, $b$) = $({316.08^{circ}}^{+27.41}_{-129.48}$, ${4.53^{circ}}^{+26.29}_{-64.06})$. The magnitude of anisotropy is $A$ = ($-$8.46 $^{+4.34}_{-5.51}$)$times$$10^{-4}$ and the corresponding preferred direction points toward $(l$, $b)$ = ($29.31^{circ}$$^{+30.59}_{-30.54}$, $71.40^{circ}$$^{+9.79}_{-9.72}$) for the quasar sample from the DF method. The combined SN and quasar sample is consistent with the isotropy hypothesis. The distribution of the dataset might impact the preferred direction from the dipole results. The result is weakly dependent on the redshift from the redshift tomography analysis. There is no evidence of cosmic anisotropy in the SN-Q sample. Though some results obtained from the quasar sample are not consistent with the standard cosmological model, we still do not find any distinct evidence of cosmic anisotropy in the SN-Q sample.
