Testing for monotonicity in the Hubble diagram
General relativistic kinematics and the cosmological principle alone imply a monotonicity constraint in the Hubble diagram, which we confront to present-day supernova data. We use the running gradient method of statistical inference by Hall and Heckman (2000). We find no significant departure from m...
