The needlets bispectrum
Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to join two different threads of the recent literature on random fields on the sphere, namely the statistical analysis of higher order angular power spectra on one hand, and the construction of second-generation wavelets on the sphere on the other. To this aim, we introduce the needlets bispectrum and we derive a number of convergence results. Here, the li...
متن کاملWeak Gravitational Lensing Bispectrum
Weak gravitational lensing observations probe the spectrum and evolution of density fluctuations and the cosmological parameters which govern them. The non-linear evolution of large scale structure produces a non-Gaussian signal which is potentially observable in galaxy shear data. We study the threepoint statistics of the convergence, specifically the bispectrum, using the dark matter halo app...
متن کاملThe Cosmic Microwave Background Bispectrum and Inflation
We derive an expression for the non-Gaussian cosmic-microwave-background (CMB) statistic I3 l defined recently by Ferreira, Magueijo, and Górski in terms of the slow-roll-inflation parameters ǫ and η. This result shows that a nonzero value of I3 l in COBE would rule out single-field slow-roll inflation. A sharp change in the slope of the inflaton potential could increase the predicted value of ...
متن کاملCompleteness of the Bispectrum on Compact Groups
This paper derives completeness properties of the bispectrum for compact groups and their homogeneous spaces. The bispectrum is the Fourier transform of the triple correlation, just as the magnitude-squared spectrum is the Fourier transform of the autocorrelation. The bispectrum has been applied in time series analysis to measure non-Gaussianity and non-linearity. It has also been applied to pr...
متن کاملThe inflationary bispectrum with curved field-space
We compute the covariant three-point function near horizon-crossing for a system of slowly-rolling scalar fields during an inflationary epoch, allowing for an arbitrary field-space metric. We show explicitly how to compute its subsequent evolution using a covariantized version of the separate universe or ‘δN ’ expansion, which must be augmented by terms measuring curvature of the field-space ma...
