Astronomical observations suggest that the Universe may be anisotropic on the largest scales. In order to model this situation, we develop a new approach to cosmology that allows for large-scale anisotropy to emerge from the growth of…
If one accounts for correlations between scales, then nonlocal, k-dependent halo bias is part and parcel of the excursion set approach, and hence of halo model predictions for galaxy bias. We present an analysis that distinguishes between a…
We derive a general expression for the large-scale halo bias, in theories with a scale-dependent linear growth, using the excursion set formalism. Such theories include modified gravity models, and models in which the dark energy clustering…

If a scalar field couples to the Ricci scalar with a large non-minimal coupling, the Standard Model coupling parameters can differ above and below an intermediate field range of the scalar due to the non-renormalizability. In this paper, we…
We study non-compact scaling limits of uniform random planar quadrangulations with a boundary when their size tends to infinity. Depending on the asymptotic behavior of the boundary size and the choice of the scaling factor, we observe…

It is shown that the Anderson transition (AT) in 3d obeys a two-parameter scaling law, derived from a pair of anisotropic scaling transformations, and corresponding critical exponents and scaling function calculated, using a high-precision…
Self-similar dynamical processes are characterized by a growing length scale $\xi$ which increases with time as $\xi \sim t^{1/z}$, where z is the dynamical exponent. The best known example is a simple random walk with z=2. Usually such…
