We study biasing as a physical phenomenon by analysing power spectra (PS) and correlation functions (CF) of simulated galaxy samples and dark matter (DM) samples. We apply an algorithm based on the local densities of particles, $rho$, to form populations of simulated galaxies, using particles with $rho ge rho_0$. We calculate two-point CF of projected (2D) and spatial (3D) density fields of simulated galaxies for various particle-density limits $rho_0$. We compare 3D and 2D CFs; in 2D case we use samples of various thickness to find the dependence of 2D CFs on thickness of samples. Dominant elements of the cosmic web are clusters and filaments, separated by voids filling most of the volume. In individual 2D sheets positions of clusters and filaments do not coincide. As a result, in projection clusters and filaments fill in 2D voids. This leads to the decrease of amplitudes of CFs in projection. For this reason amplitudes of 2D CFs are lower than amplitudes of 3D CFs, the difference is the larger, the thicker are 2D samples. Using PS and CFs of simulated galaxies and DM we estimate the bias factor for $L^ast$ galaxies, $b^ast =1.85 pm 0.15$.

We calculated spatial correlation functions of galaxies, $xi(r)$, structure functions, $g(r)=1 +xi(r)$, gradient functions, $gamma(r)= d log g(r)/ d log r$, and fractal dimension functions, $D(r)= 3+gamma(r)$, using dark matter particles of the biase
d $Lambda$ cold dark matter (CDM) simulation, observed galaxies of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), and simulated galaxies of the Millennium and EAGLE simulations. We analysed how these functions describe fractal and biasing properties of the cosmic web. The correlation functions of the biased $Lambda$CDM model samples at small distances (particle and galaxy separations), $r le 2.25$~Mpc, describe the distribution of matter inside dark matter (DM) halos. In real and simulated galaxy samples, only the brightest galaxies in clusters are visible, and the transition from clusters to filaments occurs at a distance $r approx 0.8 - 1.5$~Mpc. Real and simulated galaxies of low luminosity, $M_r ge -19$, have almost identical correlation lengths and amplitudes, indicating that dwarf galaxies are satellites of brighter galaxies, and do not form a smooth population in voids. The combination of several physical processes (e.g. the formation of halos along the caustics of particle trajectories and the phase synchronisation of density perturbations on various scales) transforms the initial random density field to the current highly non-random density field. Galaxy formation is suppressed in voids, which increases the amplitudes of correlation functions and power spectra of galaxies, and increases the large-scale bias parameter. The combined evidence leads to the large-scale bias parameter of $L_star$ galaxies the value $b_star =1.85 pm 0.15$. We find $r_0(L_star) = 7.20 pm 0.19$ for the correlation length of $L_star$ galaxies.
We investigate the higher-order correlation properties of the VIMOS Public Extragalactic Redshift Survey (VIPERS) to test the hierarchical scaling hypothesis at z~1 and the dependence on galaxy luminosity, stellar mass, and redshift. We also aim to a
ssess deviations from the linearity of galaxy bias independently from a previously performed analysis of our survey (Di Porto et al. 2014). We have measured the count probability distribution function in cells of radii 3 < R < 10 Mpc/h, deriving $sigma_{8g}$, the volume-averaged two-,three-,and four-point correlation functions and the normalized skewness $S_{3g}$ and kurtosis $S_{4g}$ for volume-limited subsamples covering the ranges $-19.5 le M_B(z=1.1)-5log(h) le -21.0$, $9.0 < log(M*/M_{odot} h^{-2}) le 11.0$, $0.5 le z < 1.1$. We have thus performed the first measurement of high-order correlations at z~1 in a spectroscopic redshift survey. Our main results are the following. 1) The hierarchical scaling holds throughout the whole range of scale and z. 2) We do not find a significant dependence of $S_{3g}$ on luminosity (below z=0.9 $S_{3g}$ decreases with luminosity but only at 1{sigma}-level). 3) We do not detect a significant dependence of $S_{3g}$ and $S_{4g}$ on scale, except beyond z~0.9, where the dependence can be explained as a consequence of sample variance. 4) We do not detect an evolution of $S_{3g}$ and $S_{4g}$ with z. 5) The linear bias factor $b=sigma_{8g}/sigma_{8m}$ increases with z, in agreement with previous results. 6) We quantify deviations from the linear bias by means of the Taylor expansion parameter $b_2$. Our results are compatible with a null non-linear bias term, but taking into account other available data we argue that there is evidence for a small non-linear bias term.
Well known scaling laws among the structural properties of the dark and the luminous matter in disc systems are too complex to be arisen by two inert components that just share the same gravitational field. This brings us to critically focus on the 3
0-year-old paradigm, that, resting on a priori knowledge of the nature of Dark Matter (DM), has led us to a restricted number of scenarios, especially favouring the collisionless $Lambda$ Cold Dark Matter one. Motivated by such observational evidence, we propose to resolve the dark matter mystery by following a new Paradigm: the nature of DM must be guessed/derived by deeply analyzing the properties of the dark and luminous mass distribution at galactic scales. The immediate application of this paradigm leads us to propose the existence of a direct interaction between Dark and Standard Model particles, which has finely shaped the inner regions of galaxies.
We use the overdensity field reconstructed in the volume of the COSMOS area to study the nonlinear biasing of the zCOSMOS galaxies. The galaxy overdensity field is reconstructed using the current sample of ~8500 accurate zCOSMOS redshifts at I(AB)<22
.5 out to z~1 on scales R from 8 to 12 Mpc/h. By comparing the probability distribution function (PDF) of galaxy density contrast delta_g to the lognormal approximation of the PDF of the mass density contrast delta, we obtain the mean biasing function b(delta,z,R) between the galaxy and matter overdensity field and its second moments b(hat) and b(tilde) up to z~1. Over the redshift interval 0.4<z<1 the conditional mean function <delta_g|delta> = b(delta,z,R) delta is of the following characteristic shape. The function vanishes in the most underdense regions and then sharply rises in a nonlinear way towards the mean densities. <delta_g|delta> is almost a linear tracer of the matter in the overdense regions, up to the most overdense regions in which it is nonlinear again and the local effective slope of <delta_g|delta> vs. delta is smaller than unity. The <delta_g|delta> function is evolving only slightly over the redshift interval 0.4<z<1. The linear biasing parameter increases from b(hat)=1.24+/-0.11 at z=0.4 to b(hat)=1.64+/-0.15 at z=1 for the M_B<-20-z sample of galaxies. b(hat) does not show any dependence on the smoothing scale from 8 to 12 Mpc/h, but increases with luminosity. The measured nonlinearity parameter b(tilde)/b(hat) is of the order of a few percent (but it can be consistent with 0) and it does not change with redshift, the smoothing scale or the luminosity. By matching the linear bias of galaxies to the halo bias, we infer that the M_B<-20-z galaxies reside in dark matter haloes with a characteristic mass of about 3-6 x 10^12 Msol, depending on the halo bias fit.
