We prove that, in a generic single-field model, the consistency relation for the 3-point function in the squeezed limit receives corrections that vanish quadratically in the ratio of the momenta, i.e. as (k_L/k_S)^2. This implies that a…
We consider the contribution to the three-point function of matter density fluctuations from nonlinear growth after modes re-enter the horizon, and discuss effects that must be included in order to predict the three-point function with an…
We present a fast and accurate formulation for computing the nonlinear matter power spectrum at one-loop order based on Unified Lagrangian Perturbation Theory (ULPT). ULPT decomposes the density field into the Jacobian deviation, capturing…
We measure the linear power spectrum of mass density fluctuations at redshift z=2.5 from the \lya forest absorption in a sample of 19 QSO spectra, using the method introduced by Croft et al. (1998). The P(k) measurement covers the range…
We argue that the neutrino oscillation probabilities in matter are best understood by allowing the mixing angles and mass-squared differences in the standard parametrization to `run' with the matter effect parameter $a=2\sqrt{2}G_F N_e E$,…
One way of recovering information about the initial conditions of the Universe is by measuring features of the cosmological density field which are preserved during gravitational evolution and galaxy formation. In this paper we study the…
Upcoming surveys of cosmic structures will probe scales close to the cosmological horizon, which opens up new opportunities for testing the cosmological concordance model to high accuracy. In particular, constraints on the squeezed…
The two-point summary statistics is one of the most commonly used tools in the study of cosmological structure. Starting from the theoretical power spectrum defined in the 3D volume and obtained via the process of ensemble averaging, we…
The power spectrum has long been the workhorse summary statistics for large-scale structure cosmological analyses. However, gravitational non-linear evolution moves precious cosmological information from the two-point statistics (such as…
Mathematical models for the stochastic evolution of wave functions that combine the unitary evolution according to the Schroedinger equation and the collapse postulate of quantum theory are well understood for non-relativistic quantum…
We propose an alternative formulation of Many-Body Perturbation Theory that uses the density-functional concept. Instead of the usual four-point integral equation for the polarizability, we obtain a two-point one, that leads to excellent…
We revisit the power spectrum analysis of the complete sample of the two degree field (2dF) QSO redshift (2QZ) survey, as a complementary test of the work by Outram et al. (2003). A power spectrum consistent with that of the 2QZ group is…
Hamilton et al. (1991) proposed a simple formula relating the nonlinear autocorrelation function of the mass distribution to the primordial spectrum of density fluctuations for gravitational clustering in an $\Omega=1$ universe. High…
There is a controversy of how to interpret interactions of electrons with a large spatial coherence with light and matter. When such an electron emits a photon, it can do so either as if its charge were confined to a point within a…
How can we analyze quantum correlations in large and noisy systems without quantum state tomography? An established method is to measure total angular momenta and employ the so-called spin-squeezing inequalities based on their expectations…
We investigate the nonlinear evolution of structure in variants of the standard cosmological model which display damped density fluctuations relative to cold dark matter (e.g. in which cold dark matter is replaced by warm or interacting…
A phenomenological power spectrum of primordial density perturbations has been constructed by using both COBE data to probe the large wavelength region, and a double power law, locally deduced from galaxy catalogs, which describes the…
We report a measurement of the real space (not redshift space) power spectrum of galaxies over four and a half decades of wavenumber, 0.01 to 300 h/Mpc, from the IRAS Point Source Catalog Redshift Survey (PSCz). Since estimates of power are…
This paper studies convergence of empirical measures smoothed by a Gaussian kernel. Specifically, consider approximating $P\ast\mathcal{N}_\sigma$, for $\mathcal{N}_\sigma\triangleq\mathcal{N}(0,\sigma^2 \mathrm{I}_d)$, by…
Nonlinear effects are crucial in order to compute the cosmological matter power spectrum to the accuracy required by future generation surveys. Here, a new approach is presented, in which the power spectrum, the bispectrum and higher order…
