Extracting accurate cosmological information from galaxy-galaxy and galaxy-matter correlation functions on non-linear scales ($\lesssim 10 h^{-1} \mathrm{Mpc}$) requires cosmological simulations. Additionally, one has to marginalise over…
We investigate the running cosmological constant model with dark energy linearly proportional to the Hubble parameter, $\Lambda = \sigma H + \Lambda_0$, in which the $\Lambda$CDM limit is recovered by taking $\sigma=0$. We derive the linear…
The galaxy power spectrum is now a well-known tool of precision cosmology. In addition to the overall shape, baryon oscillations and the small-scale suppression of power by massive neutrinos capture complimentary information on cosmological…

The abundance of dark matter haloes is one of the key probes of the growth of structure and expansion history of the Universe. Theoretical predictions for this quantity usually assume that, when expressed in a certain form, it depends only…
Based on a suite of state-of-the-art high-resolution $N$-body simulations, we revisit the so-called halofit model (Smith et al. 2003) as an accurate fitting formula for the nonlinear matter power spectrum. While the halofit model has been…
Cosmic structures at small non-linear scales $k>L\sim 0.2 h $ Mpc$^{-1}$ have an impact on the longer (quasi-)linear wavelengths with $k<L$ via non-linear UV-IR mode coupling. We evaluate this effect for a $\Lambda$CDM universe applying the…
The nonlinear matter power spectrum in cosmology describes how matter density fluctuations vary with scale in the universe, providing critical insights into large-scale structure formation. The matter power spectrum includes both smooth…
We propose that dark energy in the form of a scalar field could effectively couple to dark matter inhomogeneities. Through this coupling energy could be transferred to/from the scalar field, which could possibly enter an accelerated regime.…
