| contents | In view of the new Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) 2025 results, we analyze three types of \emph{Padé cosmology}, based on rational series making use of Padé approximants over the equations of state, namely Padé$^ω$ (0,1) and Padé$^ω$ (1,1), plus a Padé$^{q}$ (0,1), i.e., a rational expansion on the dark energy deceleration parameter, in which where the numerator and denominator orders are incorporated into the above brackets. These scenarios appear alternative dark energy parameterizations with respect to the well-known $ω_0ω_a$CDM model, claimed as the most viable model by DESI. Accordingly, we perform Monte Carlo Markov chain (MCMC) analyses with the publicly available \texttt{CLASS} Boltzmann code, including the three Padé cosmology, along with the $ω_0ω_a$CDM and $Λ$CDM standard pictures. To this end, we combine independent probes from high to low redshifts to obtain reliable constraints on the cosmological parameters of these models and compare them using statistical selection criteria. \emph{Our results show that Padé cosmology is neither statistically excluded nor worse than the $ω_0ω_a$CDM parametrization}. On the contrary, the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) identifies Padé$^{q}$ (0,1) as \emph{the best-fit model}, with weak evidence against the $ω_0ω_a$CDM parameterization, while the Deviance Information Criterion (DIC) provides \emph{strong evidence against the $ω_0ω_a$CDM model, favoring Padé (1,1)}. Based on our bounds, we further investigate the evolution of the squared sound speed, revealing that the Padé$^{q}$ (0,1) and Padé$^ω$ (0,1) parameterizations exhibit enhanced stability compared with the other cases here considered and, therefore, describe robust alternatives for the cosmological background. |
