Equations of motion for DM are non-linear, containing products of Gaussian first-

REMARKS

(PART I)
COMPARISON WITH TRADITIONAL
BISPECTRUM ESTIMATION
Advantages of cross-spectra over estimating bispectrum for individual triangles!
Simple#
Nearly optimal (contains entire bispectrum information)!
Fast (like power spectrum estimation)!
Depends on just single k, i.e. covariances are easy!
Challenges!
Redshift space distortions: messier but doable (ideas/tricks welcome!)!
Not optimal beyond tree level and beyond weakly non-Gaussian fields
(could be improved with better theory or by combining with modal estimators that are
sensitive to arbitrary bispectra)
MS, Baldauf, Seljak, 1411.6595
Position-dependent power
spectrum (Chiang++) is only
sensitive to squeezed limit
where grav. signal vanishes

LSS methods at the level where CMB was 2001


Cross-spectrum method is first step to
modernize this for LSS!


but it’s really only a first step: 

our method is not yet ready for real data, 

while traditional method has been applied to real data
(most recently by Gil-Marin et al. 2014)
Explored new estimators to measure bispectrum parameters in a nearly
optimal way using cross-spectra of 3 quadratic fields with the density!
!
!
!
!
Simulations agree with theory on large scales!
Linear halo bias b1 mostly determined by shift term cross density!
Shot noise requires non-Poissonian corrections !
Future: e.g. RSDs, model to higher k, apply to real data

NEW ALGORITHMS: WHY?
Motivations to dig deeper & explore new reconstruction algorithms:!
Where does the new BAO information come from?!
Can we derive reconstruction algorithm(s) better?!
Can we do better in terms of BAO information?!
Can we reduce intermixing of model and data when reconstructing?!
(e.g. standard reconstruction makes assumptions on f, galaxy bias,
gravity when transforming data)!

TABLE II. Total BAO signal-to-noise for kmax = 0.4h/Mpc for various reconstruction algorithms (obtained from Fig. 9, based
on simulations). ‘Perfect’ refers to the BAO signal-to-noise of the linear density and ‘NoRec’ to the BAO signal-to-noise of
the measured nonlinear density without performing any reconstruction. The second-to-last row shows how much of the signal-
to-noise is lost compared to performing the standard LGS reconstruction. The bottom row shows how much signal-to-noise is
gained by reconstructions compared to performing no reconstruction.
The EGS and EF2 methods may be useful for applications because they perform almost as well as the standard LGS
algorithm and have potential advantages due to their Eulerian nature (e.g. they can be expressed as combinations of
2-, 3- and 4-point functions of the unreconstructed density). The LF2 method and the random-random methods are
not competitive in terms of signal-to-noise so they should not be used. The performance of ERR can be improved
by using asymmetric smoothing where only one of the fields entering quadratic fields is smoothed; in this case ERR
performs almost as well as EF2 but still slightly worse. For the LRR method it is less obvious how to reduce the

LSS crucial Beutler et al 2013 Dana Berry / SkyWorks Digital Inc. and the SDSS collaboration Generally, should not just compare constraining power: LSS checks cosmological model as a whole (low z vs high z from CMB)

Total BAO signal-to-noise for kmax = 0.4h/Mpc for various reconstruction algorithms (obtained from Fig. 9, based on simulations). ‘Perfect’ refers to the BAO signal-to-noise of the linear density and ‘NoRec’ to the BAO signal-to-noise of the measured nonlinear density without performing any reconstruction. The second-to-last row shows how much of the signal- to-noise is lost compared to performing the standard LGS reconstruction. The bottom row shows how much signal-to-noise is gained by reconstructions compared to performing no reconstruction. The EGS and EF2 methods may be useful for applications because they perform almost as well as the standard LGS algorithm and have potential advantages due to their Eulerian nature (e.g. they can be expressed as combinations of 2-, 3- and 4-point functions of the unreconstructed density). The LF2 method and the random-random methods are not competitive in terms of signal-to-noise so they should not be used. The performance of ERR can be improved by using asymmetric smoothing where only one of the fields entering quadratic fields is smoothed; in this case ERR performs almost as well as EF2 but still slightly worse. For the LRR method it is less obvious how to reduce the
