We perform a series of high-resolution N-body simulations designed to examine the density profiles of dark matter halos. From 12 simulated halos ranging the mass of $2\times10^{12}\sim 5\times10^{14} h^{-1}{\rm M_\odot}$ (represented by…
We use the universal mass accretion history recently reported for simulations of halo formation in the cold dark matter model (CDM) to analyze the formation and growth of a single halo. We derive the time-dependent density profile three…
We show that the nonlinear evolution of the cosmic gravitational clustering is approximately spatial local in the $x$-$k$ (position-scale) phase space if the initial perturbations are Gaussian. That is, if viewing the mass field with modes…
It has been known for nearly 20 years that the pseudo phase-space density profile of equilibrium simulated dark matter halos, $\rho(r)/\sigma^3(r)$, is well described by a power law over 3 decades in radius, even though both the density…
Dark matter haloes in Lambda CDM simulations grow by mergers with other haloes as well as accretion of "diffuse" non-halo material. We quantify the mass growth rates via these two processes, dM_mer/dt and dM_dif/dt, and their dependence on…
The early Universe may have passed through an extended period of matter-dominated expansion following inflation and prior to the onset of radiation domination. Sub-horizon density perturbations grow gravitationally during such an epoch,…

N-body simulations predict that CDM halo-assembly occurs in two phases: 1) a fast accretion phase with a rapidly deepening potential well; and 2) a slow accretion phase characterised by a gentle addition of mass to the outer halo with…
The evolution of halos consisting of weakly self-interacting dark matter particles is investigated using a new numerical Monte-Carlo N-body method. The halos initially contain kinematically cold, dense 1/r-power-law cores. For interaction…
Aims: It is well known that the presence of baryons affects the dark matter host haloes. Exploring the galaxy assembly history together with the dark matter haloes properties through time can provide a way to measure these effects. Methods:…

The way in which the large-scale cosmic environment affects galactic properties is not yet understood. Dark matter halos, which embed galaxies, initially evolve following linear theory. Their subsequent evolution is driven by non-linear…
Halos of similar mass and redshift exhibit a large degree of variability in their differential properties, such as dark matter, hot gas, and stellar mass density profiles. This variability is an indicator of diversity in the formation…
