In this paper, we develop a theory of redshift distortion of the galaxy power spectrum in the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) representation. Because the DWT power spectrum is dependent of both the scale and shape (configuration) of the…
The Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) are features in the matter power spectrum on scales of order 100-150 h^{-1} Mpc that promise to be a powerful tool to constrain and test cosmological models. The BAO have attracted such attention that…
We review the different approaches for combining the cosmological information from the full shape of the pre-reconstructed power spectrum - usually referred as redshift-space distortion (RSD) analysis - and from the baryon acoustic…
Density-reconstruction sharpens the baryon acoustic oscillations signal by undoing some of the smoothing incurred by nonlinear structure formation. In this paper we present an analytical model for reconstruction based on the Zeldovich…
Over the next decade, cosmological measurements of the large-scale structure of the Universe will be sensitive to the combined effects of dynamical dark energy and massive neutrinos. The matter power spectrum is a key repository of this…

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…
The density field reconstruction technique, which was developed to partially reverse the nonlinear degradation of the Baryon Acoustic Oscillation (BAO) feature in the galaxy redshift surveys, has been successful in substantially improving…
Future Baryon Acoustic Oscillation surveys aim at observing galaxy clustering over a wide range of redshift and galaxy populations at great precision, reaching tenths of a percent, in order to detect any deviation of dark energy from the…
We present a simple analytic approximation for the covariance between pre-reconstruction galaxy power spectrum measurements and post-reconstruction two-point correlation functions. This cross-covariance is essential for joint analyses that…
