A number of challenges to the standard Λ CDM model have been emerging during the past
few years as the accuracy of cosmological observations improves. In this review we discuss …

This review presents a comprehensive overview of galaxy bias, that is, the statistical relation
between the distribution of galaxies and matter. We focus on large scales where cosmic …

In a six-year program started in 2014 July, the Extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic
Survey (eBOSS) will conduct novel cosmological observations using the BOSS …

DESI (Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument) is a Stage IV ground-based dark energy
experiment that will study baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) and the growth of structure …

Abstract Models where dark matter and dark energy interact with each other have been
proposed to solve the coincidence problem. We review the motivations underlying the need …

We present cosmological parameter constraints based on the final nine-year Wilkinson
Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) data, in conjunction with a number of additional …

We review the paradigm of holographic dark energy (HDE), which arises from a theoretical
attempt of applying the holographic principle (HP) to the dark energy (DE) problem. Making …

Abstract The Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS), part of the Sloan Digital Sky
Survey (SDSS) III project, has provided the largest survey of galaxy redshifts available to …

ABSTRACT The Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) is designed to measure
the scale of baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) in the clustering of matter over a larger …

We investigate the anisotropic clustering of the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey
(BOSS) Data Release 12 sample, which consists of 1198 006 galaxies in the redshift range …
