The possible slowing down of cosmic acceleration was widely studied. However, the imposition of dark energy parametrization brought some tensions. In our recent paper, we test this possibility using a model-independent method, Gaussian processes. However, the reason of generating these tensions is still closed. In the present paper, we analyse the derivative of deceleration parameter to solve the problems. The reconstruction of the derivative again suggests that no slowing down of acceleration is presented within 95% C.L. from current observational data. We then deduce its constraint on dark energy. The corresponding constraint clearly reveals the reason of tension between different models in previous work. We also study the essential reason of why current data cannot convincingly measure the slowing down of acceleration. The constraints indicate that most of current data are not in the allowed region.

We show the Eddington ratio distributions of supermassive black holes at a wide redshift range (0 < z < 8) obtained with a semi-analytic model of galaxy formation. The distribution is broadly consistent with observational estimates at low redshift. W e find that the growth rate of black holes at higher redshift is more likely to exceed the Eddington limit because the typical gas fraction of the host galaxies is higher at higher redshift. We also find that the super- Eddington growth is more common for less massive supermassive black holes, supporting an idea that supermassive black holes have been formed via super-Eddington accretion. These results indicate the slowing down of cosmic growth of supermassive black holes: the growth of supermassive black holes with a higher Eddington ratio peaks at higher redshift. We also show the effect of the sample selection on the shape of the Eddington ratio distribution functions and find that shallower observations will miss active galactic nuclei with not only the smaller but also higher Eddington ratios.
Observations reveal a `bulk flow in the local Universe which is faster and extends to much larger scales than is expected around a typical observer in the standard $Lambda$CDM cosmology. This is expected to result in a scale-dependent dipolar modulat ion of the acceleration of the expansion rate inferred from observations of objects within the bulk flow. From a maximum-likelihood analysis of the Joint Lightcurve Analysis (JLA) catalogue of Type Ia supernovae we find that the deceleration parameter, in addition to a small monopole, indeed has a much bigger dipole component aligned with the CMB dipole which falls exponentially with redshift $z$: $q_0 = q_mathrm{m} + vec{q}_mathrm{d}.hat{n}exp(-z/S)$. The best fit to data yields $q_mathrm{d} = -8.03$ and $S = 0.0262~(Rightarrow d sim 100~mathrm{Mpc})$, rejecting isotropy ($q_mathrm{d} = 0$) with $3.9sigma$ statistical significance, while $q_mathrm{m} = -0.157$ and consistent with no acceleration ($q_mathrm{m} = 0$) at $1.4sigma$. Thus the cosmic acceleration deduced from supernovae may be an artefact of our being non-Copernican observers, rather than evidence for a dominant component of `dark energy in the Universe.
We investigate the critical slowing down of the topological modes using local updating algorithms in lattice 2-d CP^(N-1) models. We show that the topological modes experience a critical slowing down that is much more severe than the one of the quasi -Gaussian modes relevant to the magnetic susceptibility, which is characterized by $tau_{rm mag} sim xi^z$ with $zapprox 2$. We argue that this may be a general feature of Monte Carlo simulations of lattice theories with non-trivial topological properties, such as QCD, as also suggested by recent Monte Carlo simulations of 4-d SU(N) lattice gauge theories.
We investigate the response of a photonic gas interacting with a reservoir of pumped dye-molecules to quenches in the pump power. In addition to the expected dramatic critical slowing down of the equilibration time around phase transitions we find ex tremely slow equilibration even far away from phase transitions. This non-critical slowing down can be accounted for quantitatively by fierce competition among cavity modes for access to the molecular environment, and we provide a quantitative explanation for this non-critical slowing down.
We investigate the creation of cold dark matter (CCDM) cosmology as an alternative to explain the cosmic acceleration. Particular attention is given to the evolution of density perturbations and constraints coming from recent observations. By assumin g negligible effective sound speed we compare CCDM predictions with redshift-space-distortion based f(z) sigma_8(z) measurements. We identify a subtle issue associated with which contribution in the density contrast should be used in this test and then show that the CCDM results are the same as those obtained with LambdaCDM. These results are then contrasted with the ones obtained at the background level. For the background tests we have used type Ia supernovae data (Union 2.1 compilation) in combination with baryonic acoustic oscillations and cosmic microwave background observations and also measurements of the Hubble parameter at different redshifts. As a consequence of the studies we have performed at both the background and perturbation levels, we explicitly show that CCDM is observationally degenerate with respect to LambdaCDM (dark degeneracy). The need to overcome the lack of a fundamental microscopic basis for the CCDM is the major challenge for this kind of model.
