The most common statistic used to analyze large-scale structure surveys is the correlation function, or power spectrum. Here, we show how `slicing' the correlation function on local density brings sensitivity to interesting non-Gaussian…
We present a stable procedure for defining and measuring the two point angular autocorrelation function, w, of faint (25 < V < 29), barely resolved and unresolved sources in the HST GOODS and UDF datasets. We construct catalogs that include…
Percolation analysis has long been used to quantify the connectivity of the cosmic web. Most of the previous work is based on density fields on grids. By smoothing into fields, we lose information about galaxy properties like shape or…
Building accurate and flexible galaxy-halo connection models is crucial in modeling galaxy clustering on non-linear scales. Recent studies have found that halo concentration by itself cannot capture the full galaxy assembly bias effect and…
We have used the projected two-point correlation function, $w(r_p)$, to investigate the spatial distribution of the 591 galaxies with secure redshifts between $0 \leq z \leq 1.3$ in the five CFRS fields. The slope of the two-point…
We present a public version of the code COFFE (COrrelation Function Full-sky Estimator) available at https://github.com/JCGoran/coffe. The code computes the galaxy two-point correlation function and its multipoles in linear perturbation…
We introduce grlic, a publicly available Python tool for generating glass-like point distributions with a radial density profile $n(r)$ as it is observed in large-scale surveys of galaxy distributions on the past light cone. Utilising these…
Future large scale structure surveys will provide increasingly tight constraints on our cosmological model. These surveys will report results on the distance scale and growth rate of perturbations through measurements of Baryon Acoustic…
In the forthcoming large volume galaxy surveys higher order statistics will provide complementary information to the usual two point statistics. Low variance estimators of the Three Point Correlation Function (3CPF) of discrete data count…
Focusing on both small separations and Baryonic Acoustic Oscillation scales, the cosmic evolution of the clustering properties of peak, void, wall, and filament-type critical points is measured using two-point correlation functions in…
We present measurements of the higher-order clustering of red and blue galaxies as a function of scale and luminosity made from the two-degree field galaxy redshift survey (2dFGRS). We use a counts-in-cells analysis to estimate the volume…
Phase correlations are an efficient way to extract astrophysical information that is largely independent from the power spectrum. We develop an estimator for the line correlation function (LCF) of projected fields, given by the correlation…
We use the 2dF Galaxy Group Catalogue constructed by Merch\'an & Zandivarez to study the large scale structure of the Universe traced by galaxy groups. We concentrate on the computation of the power spectrum and the two point correlation…
The 2-point angular correlation function of galaxies, \wt, has been computed on equatorial fields observed with the CTIO 4m prime focus, within a total area of 2.31 deg$^2$. In the magnitude range $19\le m_R \le 21.5$, corresponding to…
Studies of large-scale structures in the Universe, such as superstructures or cosmic voids, have been widely used to characterize the properties of the cosmic web through statistical analyses. On the other hand, the 2-point correlation…
We probe the higher-order clustering of the galaxies in the final data release (DR12) of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) using the method of germ-grain Minkowski Functionals (MFs). Our sample…
The highly nonlinear regime of gravitational clustering is characterized by the presence of scale-invariant form of many-body correlation functions. Useful insights can be obtained by investigating the consequences of a generic scaling {\em…

We investigate how well the redshift distributions of galaxies sorted into photometric redshift bins can be determined from the galaxy angular two-point correlation functions. We find that the uncertainty in the reconstructed redshift…
The Full Counting Statistics (FCS) is studied for a one-dimensional system of non-interacting fermions with and without disorder. For two unbiased $L$ site lattices connected at time $t=0$, the charge variance increases as the natural…
