Invited Talk at {\sl ICNAPP}, Bangalore, India, Jan. 1994; {\sl Int. School on Cosmological Dark Matter}, Valencia, Oct. 1993; and Gran Sasso meeting on {\sl Solar Neutrino Problem: astrophysics or oscillations?}, march 1994.
How is the universe organized on large scales? How did this structure evolve from the unknown initial conditions to the present time? The answers to these questions will shed light on the cosmology we live in, the amount, composition and…
This is the lecture note of my invited lecture given at the International Conference on Number Theory at Harish-Chandra Research Institute in Allahabad (quite near the River Ganges), India on December 5, 2006. I gave an invited lecture on…
How is the universe organized on large scales? How did this structure evolve from the unknown initial conditions of a rather smooth early universe to the present time? The answers to these questions will shed light on the cosmology we live…
These are the proceedings of the XVIII Conference of the Indian Association for General Relativity and Gravitation (IAGRG) held at the Institute of Mathematical Sciences, Madras, INDIA during Feb. 15-17, 1996. The Conference was dedicated…
Invited review talk at the International Conference on Non-Accelerator Particle Physics (ICNAPP-94), Bangalore, India, 2-9 January 1994. Latex file.
In this paper I investigate the possibility to test Einstein's equations with observations of cosmological large scale structure. I first show that we have not tested the equations in observations concerning only the homogeneous and…
This is a brief review article of a seminar given at the International Conference on Gravitation, Astrophysics and Cosmology 2024 (ICGAC-2024), Mathura, India. We begin with a historical survey of some singular solutions in the theory of…
Talk at the 25th Johns Hopkins Workshop "2001: A Relativistic Spacetime Odyssey", Firenze September 2001.
This is the report of the "Quantum General Relativity" session, at the 16th International Conference on General Relativity & Gravitation, held on July 15th to 21st 2001, in Durban, South Africa. The report will appear on the Proceedings of…
Modern cosmology poses deep and unavoidable questions for fundamental physics. In this plenary talk, delivered in slightly different forms at the {\it Particles and Nuclei International Conference} (PANIC05) in Santa Fe, in October 2005,…
This contribution to the Proceedings is based on the talk given at the Conference on Birth of the Universe and Fundamental Physics, Rome, May 18-21, 1994. Some selected topics of the subject are reviewed: Models of Primordial Fluctuations;…
These lectures deal with our current knowledge of the matter distribution in the universe, focusing on how this is studied via the large-scale structure seen in galaxy surveys. We first assemble the necessary basics needed to understand the…
This is the account of the workshop Exact solutions and their interpretation at the 16-th International Conference on General Relativity and Gravitation held in Durban, July 15-21, 2001. Work reported in 32 oral contributions spanned a wide…
In this review, the formation, evolution, and decay of the large-scale structure of the Universe is discussed in the context of observational data, numerical simulations, and the Cosmological Standard Model (CSM). Problems concerning…
I review at the non-specialist level recent progress in the study of the large-scale structure of the Universe, covering the following areas: (1) Results from recently completed or ongoing redshift surveys of galaxies and X-ray clusters;…
This is a written version of the review talk given at the meeting on "Interface of Gravitational and Quantum Realms" at IUCAA, Pune during December 2001. The talk reviewed the recent work of Martin Bojowald on Loop Quantum Cosmology.
A School on Loop Quantum Gravity was held at the IMSc during Sept 8 -- 18, 2009. In the first week a basic introduction to LQG was provided while in the second week the focus was on the two main application, to cosmology (LQC) and to the…
Talk given at the Conference ``Constrained Dynamics and Quantum Gravity 99'', Villasimius (Sardinia, Italy), September 13-17, 1999
The last 20 years have seen an explosion in our understanding of the large-scale distribution and motions of galaxies in the nearby universe. The field has moved from a largely qualitative, morphological description of the structures seen…
