The SL test is an important supplement to current cosmological observations because it measures the redshift drift in the Lyman-α forest in the spectra of distant quasars, covering the "redshift desert" of 2 ≤ z ≤ 5. To avoid data inconsistency, we use the best-fit models based on current combined observational data as fiducial models to simulate 30 mock SL test data. We quantify the impact of these SL test data on parameter estimation for f(T) gravity theories. Two typical f(T) models are considered, the power-law model f(T)pL and the exponential-form model f(T)Exp. The results show that the SL test can effectively break the existing strong degeneracy between the present-day matter density Ωm and the Hubble constant Ho in other cosmological observations. For the considered f(T) models, a 30-year observation of the SL test can improve the constraint precision of Ωm and H0 enormously but cannot effectively improve the constraint precision of the model parameters.展开更多

We use observational data from type Ia supernovae, baryon acoustic oscillations, and cosmic microwave background to constrain this f(T) theory and reconstruct the effective equation of state and the deceleration parameter. We obtain the best-fit values of parameters and find an interesting result that the constrained f(T) theory allows for the accelerated Hubble expansion to be a transient effect.展开更多
