We calculate the lowest-order non-linear contributions to the power spectrum, two-point correlation function, and smoothed variance of the density field, for Gaussian initial conditions and scale-free initial power spectra, $P(k) \sim k^n$.…

Recent work in the literature has found a suppression or, instead, an enhancement of the Cosmic Microwave Background power spectrum in quantum gravity, although the effect is too small to be observed, in both cases. The present paper…
We report results for the angular three-point galaxy correlation function in the APM survey and compare them with theoretical expectations. For the first time, these measurements extend to sufficiently large scales to probe the weakly…
