Understanding the galaxy-halo connection is fundamental for contemporary models of galaxy clustering. The extent to which the haloes' assembly history and environment impact galaxy clustering (a.k.a. galaxy assembly bias; GAB), remains a…

We present models for the three-point correlation function (3PCF) of both dark matter and galaxies. We show that models based on the halo model can reasonably match the dark matter 3PCF obtained from high-resolution $N$-body simulations. On…

We use a very large simulation of structure growth in a LCDM universe -- the Millennium Simulation -- to study assembly bias, the fact that the large-scale clustering of haloes of given mass varies significantly with their assembly history.…

In a previous study it was proposed that the Galactic dark matter being detected by gravitational microlensing experiments such as MACHO may reside in a population of dim halo globular clusters comprising mostly or entirely low-mass stars…

We use the halo occupation model to calibrate galaxy group finders in magnitude-limited redshift surveys. Since, according to the current scenario of structure formation, galaxy groups are associated with cold dark matter halos, we make use…

We report the discovery of a highly significant concentration of galaxies at a redshift of <z>=3.090. The structure is evident in a redshift histogram of photometrically selected ``Lyman break'' objects in a 9' by 18' field in which we have…

(abridged) We present results of a search for Lyman break galaxies (LBGs) at z ~ 5 in a 618 square-arcmin field including the HDF-N taken by Subaru Prime Focus Camera. Utilizing the published redshift data of the HDF-N and its flanking…

This paper illustrates how mock observational samples of high-redshift galaxies with sophisticated selection criteria can be extracted from the predictions of GALICS, a hybrid model of hierarchical galaxy formation that couples the outputs…

To extract information from the clustering of galaxies on non-linear scales, we need to model the connection between galaxies and halos accurately and in a flexible manner. Standard halo occupation distribution (HOD) models make the…

We extend the results of previous analyses towards constraining the abundance and clustering of post-reionization ($z \sim 0-5$) neutral hydrogen (HI) systems using a halo model framework. We work with a comprehensive HI dataset including…

We place limits on the mean density of the universe and the slope of the linear power spectrum around a megaparsec scale by comparing the universal mass function to the observed luminosity function. Numerical simulations suggest that the…

Surveys of faint galaxies at high redshifts often result in a "pencil-beam" geometry that is much longer along the line-of-sight than across the sky. We explore the effects of this geometry on the abundance and clustering of Lyman-break…

We study the evolution of Lyman Break Galaxies (LBGs) from z=5 to z=0 by tracing the merger trees of galaxies in a large-scale hydrodynamic simulation based on a Lambda cold dark matter model. In particular, we emphasize on the range of…

We present a clustering analysis of ~60,000 massive (stellar mass Mstar > 10^{11} Msun) galaxies out to z = 1 drawn from 55.2 deg2 of the UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS) and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) II Supernova Survey.…

We examine the effects of magnitude, colour, and Ly-alpha equivalent width (EW) on the spatial distribution of z~3 Lyman break galaxies (LBGs) and report significant differences in their auto-correlation functions (ACFs). The results are…

We measure the projected galaxy clustering and galaxy-galaxy lensing signals using the Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey and Kilo-Degree Survey (KiDS) to study galaxy bias. We use the concept of non-linear and stochastic galaxy biasing…

We present a new method that simultaneously solves for cosmology and galaxy bias on non-linear scales. The method uses the halo model to analytically describe the (non-linear) matter distribution, and the conditional luminosity function…

We use a statistical approach to determine the relationship between the stellar masses of galaxies and the masses of the dark matter halos in which they reside. We obtain a parameterized stellar-to-halo mass (SHM) relation by populating…

Lyman limit and damped Lyman-alpha absorption systems probe the distribution of collapsed, cold gas at high redshift. Numerical simulations that incorporate gravity and gas dynamics can predict the abundance of such absorbers in…

We explore the clustering properties of high redshift dark matter halos, focusing on halos massive enough to host early generations of stars or galaxies at redshift 10 and greater. Halos are extracted from an array of dark matter…
