In the standard picture of cosmological structure formation, the Universe we see today is evolved under the gravitational instability from tiny random fluctuations. In this talk I discuss the onset of non-linearity in the large scale…
In the standard picture of structure formation, initially random-phase fluctuations are amplified by non-linear gravitational instability to produce a final distribution of mass which is highly non-Gaussian and has highly coupled Fourier…
In the standard paradigm for cosmological structure formation, clustering develops from initially random-phase (Gaussian) density fluctuations in the early Universe by a process of gravitational instability. The later, non-linear stages of…
The large-scale structure of the Universe is thought to evolve by a process of gravitational amplification from low-amplitude Gaussian noise generated in the early Universe. The later, non-linear stages of gravitation-induced clustering…
The phases of the Fourier modes appearing in a plane-wave expansion of cosmological density fields play a vital role in determining the morphology of gravitationally-developed clustering. We demonstrate this qualitatively and quantitatively…
The Fourier transform of cosmological density perturbations can be represented in terms of amplitudes and phases for each Fourier mode. We investigate the phase evolution of these modes using a mixture of analytical and numerical…
We explore a signature of phase correlations in Fourier modes of dark matter density fields induced by nonlinear gravitational clustering. We compute the distribution function of the phase sum of the Fourier modes,…
Primordial fluctuations in the cosmic density are usually assumed to take the form of a Gaussian random field that evolves under the action of gravitational instability. In the early stages, while they have low amplitude, the fluctuations…
The pseudo-spectral method is proposed for following the evolution of density and velocity fluctuations at the weakly non-linear stage in the expanding universe with a good accuracy. In this method, the evolution of density and velocity…
We investigate the weakly non-linear evolution of cosmic gravitational clustering in phase space by looking at the Zel'dovich solution in the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) representation. We show that if the initial perturbations are…
This article addresses some issues related to statistical description of gravitating systems in an expanding backgrounds. In particular, I describe (a) how the non linear mode-mode coupling transfers power from one scale to another in the…
The post-bounce oscillations of newly-born relativistic stars are expected to lead to gravitational-wave emission through the excitation of nonradial oscillation modes. At the same time, the star is oscillating in its radial modes, with a…
I review several issues related to statistical description of gravitating systems in both static and expanding backgrounds. After briefly reviewing the results for the static background, I concentrate on gravitational clustering of…
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…
We present a new approach to gauge-invariant cosmological perturbations at second order, which is also covariant. We examine two cases in particular for a dust Friedman-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker model of any curvature: we investigate…
The cosmological fluid equations are used to study the nonlinear mode coupling of density fluctuations. We find that for realistic cosmological spectra there is a significant contribution to the nonlinear evolution on scales of interest to…
The statistical translation invariance of cosmological random fields is broken by a finite survey boundary, correlating the observable Fourier modes. Standard methods for generating Gaussian fields either neglect these correlations, or are…
We numerically investigate non-Gaussianities in the late-time cosmological density field in Fourier space. We explore various statistics, including the two-point and three-point probability distribution function (PDF) of phase and modulus,…
Localized traveling-wave solutions to a nonlinear Schrodinger equation were recently shown to be a consequence of Fourier mode synchronization. The reduced dynamics describing mode interaction take the form of a phase model with novel…
We obtain the non-linear relation between cosmological density and velocity perturbations by examining their joint dynamics in a two dimensional density-velocity divergence phase space. We restrict to spatially flat cosmologies consisting…
