The Excess of JWST Bright Galaxies: A Possible Origin in the Ground State of Dynamical Dark Energy in the Light of DESI 2024 Data by N. Menci, A. A. Sen, M. Castellano

“…We have considered the effect of assuming a DE characterized by a negative Λ as the ground state of a quintessence field on the galaxy luminosity function at high redshifts. We find that such models naturally affect the galaxy UV luminosities in the redshift range 10 ≲ z ≲ 15 needed to match the JWST observations, and with the value of Ω _Λ = [−0.6, −0.3] remarkably consistent with that required by independent cosmological probes. …”
