We study the population of galactic disks expected in current hierarchical clustering models for structure formation. A rotationally supported disk with exponential surface density profile is assumed to form with a mass and angular momentum…
Recent analytical work on the modelling of dark halo abundances and clustering has demonstrated the advantages of combining the excursion set approach with peaks theory. We extend these ideas and introduce a model of excursion set peaks…

We show how correlated steps introduces significant contributions to the modification of the halo mass function in modified gravity models, taking the chameleon models as an example, in the framework of the excursion set approach. This…
We discuss in the framework of the excursion set formalism a recent discovery from N-body simulations that the clustering of haloes of given mass depends on their formation history. We review why the standard implementation of this…

We study the evolution of the halo-halo correlation function and bias in a LCDM model using very high-resolution N-body simulations. The high force and mass resolution allows dark matter (DM) halos to survive in the tidal fields in…
We calculate the average multiplicity of jets in e+e- annihilation as a function of both the jet resolution parameter, y_cut, and the thrust T. Our result resums to all orders the leading and next-to-leading logarithms in y_cut and 1-T, and…
We investigate the splashback features of dark-matter halos based on cosmic density and velocity fields. Besides the density correlation function binned by the halo orientation angle which was used in the literature, we introduce, for the…
We calculate the density profiles of virialized halos in the case of structure evolving hierarchically from a scale-free Gaussian delta-field having a power spectrum $P(k)\propto k^n$ in a Omega=1 Universe; we suppose that the initial…
Naive estimates of the statistics of large scale structure and weak lensing power spectrum measurements that include only Gaussian errors exaggerate their scientific impact. Non-linear evolution and finite volume effects are both…
Accumulating evidence suggests that galaxy interactions play an important role in shaping the properties of galaxies. For this reason, cosmological studies focused on the evolution of halo/subhalo pairs are vital. In this paper I describe a…

We use cosmological N-body/gasdynamical simulations that include star formation and feedback to examine the proposal that scaling laws between the total luminosity, rotation speed, and angular momentum of disk galaxies reflect analogous…
We revisit the non-sphericity of cluster-mass scale halos from cosmological N-body simulation on the basis of triaxial modelling. In order to understand the difference between the simulation results and the conventional ellipsoidal collapse…
The excursion set approach is a framework for estimating how the number density of nonlinear structures in the cosmic web depends on the expansion history of the universe and the nature of gravity. A key part of the approach is the…
The excursion set approach provides a framework for predicting how the abundance of dark matter halos depends on the initial conditions. A key ingredient of this formalism comes from the physics of halo formation: the specification of a…
We study the formation of dark matter halos in the concordance LCDM model over a wide range of redshifts, from z=20 to the present. Our primary focus is the halo mass function, a key probe of cosmology. By performing a large suite of…
In a previous paper, we described a new method for including detailed information about substructure in semi-analytic models of halo formation based on merger trees. In this paper, we compare the predictions of our model with results from…
