In 2021 May the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) collaboration began a 5-year spectroscopic redshift survey to produce a detailed map of the evolving three-dimensional structure of the universe between $z=0$ and $z\approx4$.…
We introduce a spectral hierarchy of cosmic-web classifications obtained by applying simple scale-weighting kernels to the density field before performing a standard eigenvalue-based web classification. This unifies and extends several…
The classification of the cosmic web into different environments is both a tool to study in more detail the formation of halos and galaxies via the link between their properties and the large-scale environment and as a class of objects…
We present a novel approach to the construction of mock galaxy catalogues for large-scale structure analysis based on the distribution of dark matter halos obtained with effective bias models at the field level. We aim to produce mock…
We present DisPerSE, a novel approach to the coherent multi-scale identification of all types of astrophysical structures, and in particular the filaments, in the large scale distribution of matter in the Universe. This method and…
The rapid growth of imaging and spectroscopic surveys has intensified the need for efficient tools that support visual inspection, a practice that remains essential for tasks such as classification, catalog refinement, and validation of…
A non-negligible source of systematic bias in cosmological analyses of galaxy surveys is the on-sky modulation caused by foregrounds and variable image characteristics such as observing conditions. Standard mitigation techniques perform a…
We present a catalogue of photometric redshifts for galaxies from DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys, which includes $\sim0.18$ billion sources covering 14,000 ${\rm deg}^2$. The photometric redshifts, along with their uncertainties, are estimated…
The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI), a multiplexed fiber-fed spectrograph, is a Stage-IV ground-based dark energy experiment aiming to measure redshifts for 29 million Emission-Line Galaxies (ELG), 4 million Luminous Red…
The DESI survey will observe more than 8 million candidate luminous red galaxies (LRGs) in the redshift range $0.3<z<1.0$. Here we present a preliminary version of the DESI LRG target selection developed using Legacy Surveys Data Release 8…
The evolution of galaxies is known to be connected to their position within the large-scale structure and their local environmental density. We investigate the relative importance of these using the underlying dark matter density field…
Extreme emission-line galaxies (EELGs) probe chemical enrichment in low-mass, bursty systems where star formation, feedback, and gas accretion are poorly constrained. Using DESI DR1, we select 23 nearby EELGs with detections of 19 ionic…
We derive cosmological parameter constraints from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Data Release 1 (DR1) galaxy clustering data, based on a joint full-shape analysis of the power spectrum multipoles and the bispectrum monopole…
We present the technical details on how large-scale structure (LSS) catalogs are constructed from redshifts measured from spectra observed by the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). The LSS catalogs provide the information needed…
Dust-lane spheroidal galaxies (DLSGs) are unique astrophysical systems that exhibit the morphology of early-type galaxies (ETGs) but are distinguished by prominent dust lanes. Recent studies propose that they form through minor mergers…
We introduce a decision scheme for optimally choosing a classifier, which segments the cosmic web into different structure types (voids, sheets, filaments, and clusters). Our framework, based on information theory, accounts for the design…
Large-scale structures (LSS) out to z $< 3.0$ are measured in the Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS) using extremely accurate photometric redshifts (photoz). The Ks-band selected sample (from Ultra-Vista) is comprised of 155,954 galaxies. Two…

The numerous extragalactic and cosmological motivations of the DENIS and 2MASS near infrared surveys are outlined. The performance of the DENIS survey is estimated from 50 deg^2 of high galactic latitude data (20 deg < |b| < 60 deg). Simple…
The distribution of galaxies and clusters of galaxies on the mega-parsec scale of the Universe follows an intricate pattern now famously known as the Large-Scale Structure or the Cosmic Web. To study the environments of this network,…
