Testing for monotonicity in the Hubble diagram

Abstract:: 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 monotonicity. The method seems well adapted and we recommend its use with future data.
