We use a set of numerical N-body simulations to study the large-scale behavior of the reduced bispectrum of dark matter and compare the results with the second-order perturbation theory and the halo models for different halo mass functions.…
The inverse amplitude method is used to unitarize the two loop $\pi\pi$ scattering amplitudes of SU(2) Chiral Perturbation Theory in the $I=0,J=0$, $I=1,J=1$ and $I=2,J=0$ channels. An error analysis in terms of the low energy one-loop…
The existing Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT) calculations at order $p^6$ are reviewed. The principles of ChPT and how they are used are introduced. The main part is a review of the two- and three-flavour full two-loop calculations and…

We study the bispectrum in the Effective Field Theory of Large Scale Structure, consistently accounting for the effects of short-scale dynamics. We begin by proving that, as long as the theory is perturbative, it can be formulated to…
Recently a number of analytic prescriptions for computing the non-linear matter power spectrum have appeared in the literature. These typically involve resummation or closure prescriptions which do not have a rigorous error control, thus…
We study the bispectrum of large-scale structure in the EFTofLSS including corrections up to two-loop. We derive an analytic result for the double-hard limit of the two-loop correction, and show that the UV-sensitivity can be absorbed by…
Perturbative superstring theory is revisited, with the goal of giving a simpler and more direct demonstration that multi-loop amplitudes are gauge-invariant (apart from known anomalies), satisfy space-time supersymmetry when expected, and…
There has been some recent activity in trying to understand the dark matter clustering properties in the quasilinear regime, through resummation of perturbative terms, otherwise known as the renormalized perturbation theory…
We study a two-loop contribution to the dark-matter trispectrum and evaluate it numerically using an infrared-safe integrand. The calculation is organized as an expansion around a fixed reference cosmology: the linear matter power spectrum…
We compare the non-linear matter power spectrum in real space calculated analytically from 3rd-order perturbation theory with N-body simulations at 1<z<6. We find that the perturbation theory prediction agrees with the simulations to better…

In this paper, we study the matrix model proposed by Berenstein, Maldacena, and Nastase to describe M-theory on the maximally supersymmetric pp-wave. We show that the model may be derived directly as a discretized theory of supermembranes…

We explore the properties of two-point cosmic propagators when Perturbation Theory (PT) loop corrections are consistently taken into account. We show in particular how the interpolation scheme proposed in arXiv:1112.3895 can be explicitly…
Recent studies based on the notion of black hole pseudospectrum indicated substantial instability of the fundamental and high-overtone quasinormal modes. Besides its theoretical novelty, the details about the migration of the quasinormal…
