Beginning with a relativistic action principle for the irrotational flow of collisionless matter, we compute higher order corrections to the Zel'dovich approximation by deriving a nonlinear Hamilton-Jacobi equation for the velocity…
We present a method for reconstructing cosmological densityn for and velocity fields using the Lagrangian Zel'dovich formalism. . The method involves finding the least action solution for straight line particle paths in an evolving density…
We show how the Zel'dovich approximation and the second order displacement field of Lagrangian perturbation theory can be obtained from a general relativistic gradient expansion in \Lambda{}CDM cosmology. The displacement field arises as a…
In the equation of motion approach to the two-time Green's functions, conventional Tyablikov-type truncation of the chain of equations is rather arbitrary and apt to violate the analytical structure of Green's functions. Here, we propose a…
We describe various expansion schemes that can be used to study gravitational clustering. Obtained from the equations of motion or their path-integral formulation, they provide several perturbative expansions that are organized in different…
Massless vector and scalar Green's functions are obtained in closed form for a plane gravitational wave spacetime using three independent methods: direct solution of the Green-function equation and construction via the DeWitt and Hadamard…
We examine the deviation of Cold Dark Matter particle trajectories from the Newtonian result as the size of the region under study becomes comparable to or exceeds the particle horizon. To first order in the gravitational potential, the…
Time-dependent quantum mechanics provides an intuitive picture of particle propagation in external fields. Semiclassical methods link the classical trajectories of particles with their quantum mechanical propagation. Many analytical results…
This report provides Green's functions (classical propagators) of gravitational fields appearing in general relativity. The existence of Green's function of the wave equation in curved space with an indefinite metric is ensured owing to the…
This year marks the 100th anniversary of the birth of Yakov Zel'dovich. Amongst his many legacies is the Zel'dovich approximation for the growth of large-scale structure, which remains one of the most successful and insightful analytic…
This paper deals with the time evolution in the matter era of perturbations in Friedman-Lemaitre models with arbitrary density parameter $\Omega$, with either a zero cosmological constant, $\Lambda = 0$, or with a non-zero cosmological…
The theoretical investigation of charge (and spin) transport at nanometer length scales requires the use of advanced and powerful techniques able to deal with the dynamical properties of the relevant physical systems, to explicitly include…
We apply various expansion schemes that may be used to study gravitational clustering to the simple case of the Zeldovich dynamics. Using the well-known exact solution of the Zeldovich dynamics we can compare the predictions of these…
Here we present a detailed account of the fundamental problems one encounters in projection theory when non-orthogonal basis sets are used for representation of the operators. In particular, we re-examine the use of projection operators in…
We study the behaviour of spherical Voids in Lagrangian perturbation theories L(n), of which the Zel'dovich approximation is the lowest order solution L(1). We find that at early times higher order L(n) give an increasingly accurate picture…
Non-equilibrium Green's function theory and related methods are widely used to describe transport phenomena in many-body systems, but they often require a costly inversion of a large matrix. We show here that the shift-invert Lanczos method…
This paper gives an introduction to the Keldysh formalism, with emphasis on its usefulness in time-dependent density functional theory. In the first part we introduce the Keldysh contour and the one-particle Green function defined on this…
We introduce a novel approach, the Cosmological Trajectories Method (CTM), to model nonlinear structure formation in the Universe by expanding gravitationally-induced particle trajectories around the Zel'dovich approximation. A new Beyond…
The newly developed single trajectory quadrature method is applied to a two-dimensional example. The results based on different versions of new perturbation expansion and the new Green's function deduced from this method are compared to…
We study the motion of test particles in the metric of a localized and slowly rotating astronomical source, within the framework of linear gravitoelectromagnetism, grounded on a Post-Minkowskian approximation of general relativity. Special…
