Obtaining constraints from the largest scales of a galaxy survey is challenging due to the survey mask allowing only partial measurement of large angular modes. This scatters information from the harmonic-space 2-point function away from…
We conduct a comprehensive study into the impact of pixelization on cosmic shear, uncovering several sources of bias in standard pseudo-$C_\ell$ estimators based on discrete catalogues. We derive models that can bring residual biases to the…
Raster images can have a range of various distortions connected to their raster structure. Upsampling them might in effect substantially yield the raster structure of the original image, known as aliasing. The upsampling itself may…
We explain why aliasing can be detected in a generic temporally-sampled stationary signal process. We then define a concept of stationarity that makes sense for single waveforms. (This is done without assuming that the waveform is a sample…
Cosmological random fields are often analysed in spherical Fourier-Bessel basis. Compared to the Cartesian Fourier basis this has an advantage of properly taking into account some of the relevant physical processes (redshift-space…

We introduce a simple representation for isotropic spherical random fields and we discuss how it allows to discuss different notions of sparsity under isotropy. We also show how a suitable construction of sparse fields can mimic well the…

Regular sampling in the time domain results in aliasing in the frequency domain that complicates the accurate determination of the periods of astrophysical variables. We propose to actively break the regularity of this sampling by providing…
In this article, we present a space-frequency theory for spherical harmonics based on the spectral decomposition of a particular space-frequency operator. The presented theory is closely linked to the theory of ultraspherical polynomials on…
A practical constraint that comes in the way of spectrum estimation of a continuous time stationary stochastic process is the minimum separation between successively observed samples of the process. When the underlying process is not…
This paper discusses sparse isotropic regularization for a random field on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^2$ in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$, where the field is expanded in terms of a spherical harmonic basis. A key feature is that the norm used in the…
The intrinsically nonlinear nature of quantum field theory provides a fundamental complication for lattice calculations, when the physical implications of the subtleties of Fourier theory are taken into account. Even though the fundamental…
Matrix-valued covariance functions are crucial to geostatistical modeling of multivariate spatial data. The classical assumption of symmetry of a multivariate covariance function is overlay restrictive and has been considered as unrealistic…
Series expansions of isotropic Gaussian random fields on $\mathbb{S}^2$ with independent Gaussian coefficients and localized basis functions are constructed. Such representations with multilevel localised structure provide an alternative to…
Isotropic Gaussian random fields on the sphere are characterized by Karhunen-Lo\`{e}ve expansions with respect to the spherical harmonic functions and the angular power spectrum. The smoothness of the covariance is connected to the decay of…
In this paper we define (empirical) quadratic variations for a Gaussian isotropic random field $f$ on a unit sphere as sums over equidistant increments on one single geodesic line on the surface of the sphere. We prove a noncentral limit…
In this paper we establish a multiscale approximation for random fields on the sphere using spherical needlets --- a class of spherical wavelets. We prove that the semidiscrete needlet decomposition converges in mean and pointwise senses…
Interactions and effect aliasing are among the fundamental concepts in experimental design. In this paper, some new insights and approaches are provided on these subjects. In the literature, the "de-aliasing" of aliased effects is deemed to…
