| Popis: | The quintessence dark energy potential is reconstructed in a model-independent way. Reconstruction relies on a Gaussian process and on available expansion-rate data. Specifically, 40-point values of $H(z)$ are used, consisting of a 30-point sample deduced from a differential age method and an additional 10-point sample obtained from the radial BAO method. Results are obtained for two kernel functions and for three different values of $H_{0}$. They shed light on the $H_{0}$ tension problem for a universe described with quintessence dark energy. They are also a clear indication that the tension has to do with the physical understanding of the issue, rather than being just a numerical problem with statistics. Moreover, the model-independent reconstruction of the potential here obtained can serve as a reference to constraint available models and it can be also used as a reference frame to construct new ones. Various possibilities, including $V(\phi) \sim e^{-\lambda \phi}$, are compared with the reconstructions here obtained, which is notably the first truly model independent reconstruction of the quintessence dark energy potential. This allows to select new models that can be interesting for cosmology. The method can be extended to reconstruct the potential of related dark energy models, to be considered in future work.
