We investigate the higher-order correlation properties of the VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS) to test the hierarchical scaling hypothesis at z~1 and the depende…
The VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS): On the correct recovery of the count-in-cell probability distribution function

We discuss an analytical approximation for the matter power spectrum covariance matrix and its inverse on translinear scales, at . We proce…
Unveiling the cosmological information beyond linear scales: forecasts for sufficient statistics
M. Wolk, J. Carron, I. Szapudi

We use percent-level precision photometric redshifts in the UltraVISTA-DR1 near-infrared survey to investigate the changing relationship be- tween galaxy stellar mass and the dark…
On fast Generation of Cosmological Random Fields
Julien Carron, Melody Wolk, Istvan Szapudi
The statistical translation invariance of cosmological random fields is broken by a finite survey boundary, correlating the observable Fourier modes. Standard methods for generatin…
