Combination of the power spectrum and bispectrum is a powerful way of breaking degeneracies between galaxy bias and cosmological parameters, enabling us to maximize the constraining power from galaxy surveys. Recent cosmological constraints…
We develop a new test of local bias, by constructing a locally biased halo density field from sampling the dark matter-halo distribution. Our test differs from conventional tests in that it preserves the full scatter in the bias relation…

We study the cosmological information content of the redshift-space galaxy bispectrum monopole at one-loop order in perturbation theory. We incorporate all effects necessary for comparison to data: fourth-order galaxy bias, infrared…
We study the power spectrum of galaxies in redshift space, with third order perturbation theory to include corrections that are absent in linear theory. We assume a local bias for the galaxies: i.e. the galaxy density is sampled from some…
We present results from a study of bias and its evolution for galaxy-size halos in a large, high-resolution simulation of a LCDM model. We consider the evolution of bias estimated using two-point correlation function (b_xi), power spectrum…
We examine the scale dependence of dark matter, halo and galaxy clustering on very large scales (0.01<k[h/Mpc]<0.15), due to non-linear effects from dynamics and halo bias. We pursue a two line offensive: high resolution numerical…
We present a method for suppressing contributions from higher-order terms in perturbation theory, greatly increasing the amount of information which may be extracted from the matter power spectrum. In an evolved cosmological density field…
The impact of biasing schemes on the clustering of tracers of the large-scale structure is analytically studied in the weakly nonlinear regime. For this purpose, we use the one-loop approximation of the integrated perturbation theory…
We derive the expressions for the 1-loop corrections in cosmological, Eulerian, perturbation theory to the matter bispectrum and to the galaxy bispectrum, assuming local galaxy bias, in presence of non-Gaussian initial conditions. We…
Understanding the relation between underlying matter distribution and biased tracers such as galaxy or dark matter halo is essential to extract cosmological information from ongoing or future galaxy redshift surveys. At sufficiently large…
Distribution of galaxies may be a biased tracer of the dark matter distribution and the relation between the galaxies and the total mass may be stochastic, non-linear and time-dependent. Since many observations of galaxy clustering will be…

We study whether the bias factors of galaxies can be unbiasedly recovered from their power spectra and bispectra. We use a set of numerical N-body simulations and construct large mock galaxy catalogs based upon the semi-analytical model of…
Cosmic shear is a powerful probe of cosmological parameters, but its potential can be fully utilised only if galaxy shapes are measured with great accuracy. Two major effects have been identified which are likely to account for most of the…
We introduce a methodology to extend the Fisher matrix forecasts to mildly non-linear scales without the need of selecting a cosmological model. We make use of standard non-linear perturbation theory for biased tracers complemented by…
