In flat ΛCDM, DESI prefers "small \(\Omega_\mathrm{m}\), large \(H_0\) (though \(3.7\sigma\) away from SH0ES), small \(\sum m_\nu\)"

DESI - SDSS consistency (\(\Omega_\mathrm{m}\))
Perfectly consistent!
Using these 2 points alone moves \(\Omega_\mathrm{m}\) by \(< 2 \sigma\)
Are SN \(\Omega_\mathrm{m}\) consistent?
Not so much in flat \(\Lambda\mathrm{CDM}\)...
(so we do not combine them in this model!)
Are SN \(\Omega_\mathrm{m}\) consistent?
Consistent in \(w_0w_a\mathrm{CDM}\)!

Appendix B
\(w_0 - w_a\) with \(\sum m_\nu\) free
\(w_0 - w_a\) with \(\Omega_\mathrm{K}\)
Preference for \(w_{0} > -1, w_{a} < 0\) persists when curvature is left free
DE constraints driven by low-\(z\) ?
Not that much!
DESI + SDSS swaps DESI measurements with SDSS for \(z < 0.6\)
