    The non-linear, late-time evolution of cosmic structures is notoriously hard to tackle with analytic methods. While numerical simulations are highly successful and lead to impressive results, there are fundamental as well as pragmatic reasons for an analytic understanding to be sought. Conventional methods based on the hydrodynamic equations are limited mainly by the shell-crossing problem. In...

    We are entering a transformative period in observational cosmology. Surveys starting in 2019 promise to solve key problems in cosmology — but only if we develop new approaches for handling the volume and complexity of the data. Extracting robust cosmological information from these surveys is a major challenge that will require development and validation of analysis methods at each step of the...

    I will discuss different ways to constrain the nature of dark matter using gravitational probes from current and future astrophysical surveys. The focus will be on non-cold and interacting dark matter models.
