- Abstract: Large-scale structure (LSS) provides powerful and complementary constraints on cosmology, but much of its information is obscured by nonlinear gravitational evolution, galaxy bias, redshift-space distortions, and survey systematics. This prelim exam focuses on methods to recover cosmological information from LSS, with emphasis on two themes.
