Cosmography represents an important branch of cosmology which aims to describe the universe without the need of postulating \emph{a priori} any particular cosmological model. All quantities of interest are expanded as a Taylor series around here and now, providing in principle, a way of directly matching with cosmological data. In this way, cosmography can be regarded a model-independent technique, able to fix cosmic bounds, although several issues limit its use in various model reconstructions…

### Cosmological degeneracy versus cosmography: a cosmographic dark energy model

• Physics
• 2015
In this work, we use cosmography to alleviate the degeneracy among cosmological models, proposing a way to parametrize matter and dark energy in terms of cosmokinematics quantities. The recipe of

• 2019
Constraining the dark energy equation of state, [Formula: see text], is one of the main issues of current and future cosmological surveys. In practice, this requires making assumptions about the

### Model-independent limits and constraints on extended theories of gravity from cosmic reconstruction techniques

• Physics
• 2016
The onset of dark energy domination depends on the particular gravitational theory driving the cosmic evolution. Model independent techniques are crucial to test the both the present ΛCDM

### General cosmography model with spatial curvature

• Physics
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
• 2019
We adopt a cosmographic approach in order to determine spatial curvature (i.e. ΩK), combining the latest release of cosmic chronometer (CC) data, the Pantheon sample of Type Ia supernovae

### Note on dark energy and cosmic transit in a scale-invariance cosmology

• Physics
• 2021
In general, the laws of physics are not invariant under a change of scale. To find out whether the 'scale-invariance hypothesis' corresponds to nature or not, a careful examination to its

• 2018
A kinematic treatment to trace out the form of f(R) cosmology, within the Palatini formalism, is discussed by only postulating the universe homogeneity and isotropy. To figure this out we build

• Physics
International Journal of Modern Physics D
• 2019
Cosmography can be considered as a sort of a model-independent approach to tackle the dark energy/modified gravity problem. In this review, the success and the shortcomings of the [Formula: see
