On large scales, the higher order moments of the mass distribution, $S_J=\xibar_J/\xibar_2^{J-1}$, e.g., the skewness $S_3$ and kurtosis $S_4$, can be predicted using non-linear perturbation theory. Comparison of these predictions with…
We develop a simple analytic model for the gravitational clustering of dark matter haloes to understand how their spatial distribution is biased relative to that of the mass. The statistical distribution of dark haloes within the initial…
We measure the clustering of dark matter halos in a large set of collisionless cosmological simulations of the flat LCDM cosmology. Halos are identified using the spherical overdensity algorithm, which finds the mass around isolated peaks…
We quantify the degree of nonlinearity and stochasticity of the clustering of biased objects, using cosmological N-body simulations. Adopting the peaks and the halos as representative biasing models, we focus on the two-point correlation of…
The question we address in this paper is the determination of the correlation properties of the dark matter halos appearing in cosmic density fields once they underwent a strongly nonlinear evolution induced by gravitational dynamics.…
Properties of galaxies like their absolute magnitude and their stellar mass content are correlated. These correlations are tighter for close pairs of galaxies, which is called galactic conformity. In hierarchical structure formation…
In this talk, I will show how to determine the biasing factor $b$ from the high-order moments of galaxies. The determination is based on the analytical modeling of primordial peaks and virialized halos and is independent of the currently…
We study the evolution of the halo-halo correlation function and bias in four cosmological models (LCDM, OCDM, tauCDM, and SCDM) using very high-resolution N-body simulations. The high force and mass resolution allows dark matter (DM) halos…
We have used a combination of high resolution cosmological N-body simulations and semi-analytic modelling of galaxy formation to investigate the processes that determine the spatial distribution of galaxies in cold dark matter (CDM) models.…
Although high-resolution N-body simulations make robust empirical predictions for the density distribution within cold dark matter halos, these studies have yielded little physical insight into the origins of the distribution. We…
We study galaxy clustering using halo models, where gravitational clustering is described in terms of dark matter halos. At small scales, clustering statistics are dominated by halo density profiles, whereas at large scales, correlations…
We give an analytical form for the weighted correlation function of peaks in a Gaussian random field. In a cosmological context, this approach strictly describes the formation bias and is the main result here. Nevertheless, we show its…
We study the relation between the halo and matter density fields -- commonly termed bias -- in the LCDM framework. In particular, we examine the local model of biasing at quadratic order in the matter density. This model is characterized by…
The first dark matter halos form by direct collapse from peaks in the matter density field, and evidence from numerical simulations and other analyses suggests that the dense inner regions of these objects largely persist today. These halos…
We study the evolution of the halo-halo correlation function and bias in a LCDM model using very high-resolution N-body simulations. The high force and mass resolution allows dark matter (DM) halos to survive in the tidal fields in…
In the Halo Model, galaxies are hosted by dark matter halos, while the halos themselves are biased tracers of the underlying matter distribution. Measurements of galaxy correlation functions include contributions both from galaxies in…
We investigate the spatial clustering of dark matter halos, collapsing from $1-4 \sigma$ fluctuations, in the redshift range $0 - 5$ using N-body simulations. The halo bias of high redshift halos ($z \geq 2$) is found to be strongly…
Halo Abundance Matching has been used to construct a one-parameter mapping between galaxies and dark matter haloes by assuming that halo mass and galaxy luminosity (or stellar mass) are monotonically related. While this approach has been…
Weak lensing three-point statistics are powerful probes of the structure of dark matter halos. We propose to use the correlation of the positions of galaxies with the shapes of background galaxy pairs, known as the halo-shear-shear…
We present a new, galaxy-halo model of large-scale structure, in which the galaxies entering a given sample are the fundamental objects. Haloes attach to galaxies, in contrast to the standard halo model, in which galaxies attach to haloes.…
