The determination of the density parameter $\Omega_0$ from the large-scale distribution of galaxies is one of the major goals of modern cosmology. However, if galaxies are biased tracers of the underlying mass distribution, linear…

Redshift space distortions of the matter density power spectrum carry information on the growth rate of cosmic structure but require accurate modeling of nonlinear and velocity effects on the density field. We test and advance the…

On large scales a nonlinear transformation of matter density field can be viewed as a biased tracer of the density field itself. A nonlinear transformation also modifies the redshift space distortions in the same limit, giving rise to a…

We show that a regression of unsmoothed peculiar velocity measurements against peculiar velocities predicted from a smoothed galaxy density field leads to a biased estimate of the cosmological density parameter Omega, even when galaxies…
The reconstruction of the peculiar velocity field from the 1.936~Jy iras selected sample of galaxies is compared to a similar reconstruction from an optically selected sample. A general method for combining different samples to reconstruct…
We introduce a simple linear equation relating the line-of-sight peculiar velocity and density contrast correlation functions. The relation, which we call the "Gaussian cell two-point energy-like equation", is valid in the…
Reconstructing the density fluctuations in the early Universe that evolved into the distribution of galaxies we see today is a challenge of modern cosmology [ref.]. An accurate reconstruction would allow us to test cosmological models by…
