We review the formalism and applications of non-linear perturbation theory (PT) to
understanding the large-scale structure of the Universe. We first discuss the dynamics of …

We review the formalism and applications of the halo-based description of non-linear
gravitational clustering. In this approach, all mass is associated with virialized dark matter …

We present cosmological parameter constraints from a tomographic weak gravitational
lensing analysis of∼ 450 deg2 of imaging data from the Kilo Degree Survey (KiDS). For a …

The cold dark matter model has become the leading theoretical picture for the formation of
structure in the Universe. This model, together with the theory of cosmic inflation, makes a …

We measure cosmological parameters using the three-dimensional power spectrum P (k)
from over 200 000 galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) in combination with …

Abstract The spectroscopic Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 7 (DR7) galaxy
sample represents the final set of galaxies observed using the original SDSS target …

We measure the luminosity and color dependence of galaxy clustering in the largest-ever
galaxy redshift survey, the main galaxy sample of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Seventh Data …

We use a statistical approach to determine the relationship between the stellar masses of
galaxies and the masses of the dark matter halos in which they reside. We obtain a …

We analyze the bivariate distribution, in color versus absolute magnitude (ur vs. M r), of a
low-redshift sample of galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (2400 deg 2, 0.004< z< …

We describe the algorithm that selects the main sample of galaxies for spectroscopy in the
Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) from the photometric data obtained by the imaging survey …
