It is well established from cosmological simulations that dark matter haloes are not precisely self-similar and an additional parameter, beyond their concentration, is required to accurately describe their spherically-averaged mass density…
We present the results of methodological works on automated analysis of the large scale distribution of galaxies. Selecting candidates for clusters and groups of galaxies was carried out using two complementary methods of determining the…
This paper reviews and analyses methods used to identify neighbours in 6D space and estimate the corresponding phase-space density. It compares SPH methods to 6D Delaunay tessellation on statical and dynamical realisation of single halo…
We present a method to numerically estimate the densities of a discretely sampled data based on binary space partitioning tree. We start with a root node containing all the particles and then recursively divide each node into two nodes each…
A spatial distribution is hyperuniform if it has local density fluctuations that vanish in the limit of long length scales. Hyperuniformity is a well known property of both crystals and quasicrystals. Of recent interest, however, is…
Position probability distribution of a set of massive mutually exclusive particles in one dimension has been defined. Examples with a given two mutually exclusive particles system are considered. It is emphasized that quantum particles at…
We present a maximum-likelihood analysis of galaxy-galaxy lensing effects in galaxy clusters and in the field. The aim is to determine the accuracy and robustness of constraints that can be obtained on galaxy halo properties in both…
We calculate the non-linear virialization density, $\Delta_c$, of halos under spherical collapse from peaks with an arbitrary initial and final density profile. This is in contrast to the standard calculation of $\Delta_c$ which assumes…
We introduce a framework for the generation of grid-shell structures that is based on Voronoi diagrams and allows us to design tessellations that achieve excellent static performances. We start from an analysis of stress on the input…
We explore a function with two shape parameters for the dark-matter halo density profile subject to baryonic effects, which is a special case of the general Zhao family of models applied to simulated dark matter haloes by Dekel et al. This…
We compute the joint distribution of relative velocities and separations of identical inertial particles suspended in randomly mixing and turbulent flows. Our results are obtained by matching asymptotic forms of the distribution. The method…
We present a novel and fast application to generate glass-like initial conditions for Lagrangian hydrodynamic schemes (e.g. Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH)) following arbitrary density models based on weighted Voronoi tessellations…
A formalism is presented for analytically obtaining the probability density function, (P_{n}(s)), for the random distance (s) between two random points in an (n)-dimensional spherical object of radius (R). Our formalism allows (P_{n}(s)) to…
Identifying Blaschke-Santal\'o diagrams is an important topic that essentially consists in determining the image $Y=F(X)$ of a map $F:X\to{\mathbb{R}}^d$, where the dimension of the source space $X$ is much larger than the one of the target…
This paper presents a new method to model X-ray scattering on random rough surfaces. It combines the approaches we presented in two previous papers -- \zs\cite{zhao03} \& \pz\cite{zhao15}. An actual rough surface is (incompletely) described…
We establish a one-to-one correspondence between virialized haloes and their seeds, namely peaks with a given density contrast at appropriate Gaussian-filtering radii, in the initial Gaussian random density field. This fixes a rigorous…
Consider the triplet $(E, \mathcal{P}, \pi)$, where $E$ is a finite ground set, $\mathcal{P} \subseteq 2^E$ is a collection of subsets of $E$ and $\pi : \mathcal{P} \rightarrow [0,1]$ is a requirement function. Given a vector of marginals…
We consider the Voronoi tessellation based on a homogeneous Poisson point process in $\mathbf{R}^{d}$. For a geometric characteristic of the cells (e.g. the inradius, the circumradius, the volume), we investigate the point process of the…
Consider the distances $\tilde{R}_o$ and $R_o$ from the nucleus to a uniformly random point in the 0-cell and the typical cell, respectively, of the $d$-dimensional Poisson-Voronoi (PV) tessellation. The main objective of this paper is to…
Voronoi tessellations of scale-invariant fractal sets are characterized by topological and metrical properties that are significantly different from those of natural cellular structures. As an example we analyze Voronoi diagrams of…
