In this paper, I revisit the constraints obtained by several authors (Reichart et al. 1999; Eke et al. 1998; Henry 2000) on the estimated values of Omegam, n and sigma_8 in the light of recent theoretical developments: 1) new theoretical mass functions (Sheth & Tormen 1999, Sheth, Mo & Tormen 2001, Del Popolo 2002b); 2) a more accurate mass-temperature relation, also determined for arbitrary Omega_m and Omega_Lambda (Del Popolo 2002a).

In cosmology, the cosmic curvature $K$ and the cosmological constant $Lambda$ are two important parameters, and the values have strong influence on the behavior of the universe. In the context of normal cosmology, under the ordinary assumptions of po sitive mass-energy and initial negative pressure, we find the initial singularity of the universe is certainly absent and we have $K=1$. This means total spatial structure of the universe should be a 3-dimensional sphere $S^3$. For the cyclic cosmological model, we have $Lambdalesssim 10^{-24} {rm ly}^{-2}$. Obviously, such constraints would be helpful for the researches on the properties of dark matter and dark energy in cosmology.
Data from Type Ia supernovae, along with X-ray cluster estimates of the universal baryon fraction and Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) determinations of the baryon-to-photon ratio, are used to provide estimates of several global cosmological parameters at epochs near zero redshift. We show that our estimate of the present baryon density is in remarkably good agreement with that inferred from BBN at high redshift, provided the primordial abundance of deuterium is relatively low and the Universe is flat. We also compare these estimates to the baryon density at z = 1100 as inferred from the CMB angular power spectrum.

We set new constraints on a seven-dimensional space of cosmological parameters within the class of inflationary adiabatic models. We use the angular power spectrum of the cosmic microwave background measured over a wide range of ell in the first flig ht of the MAXIMA balloon-borne experiment (MAXIMA-1) and the low ell results from COBE/DMR. We find constraints on the total energy density of the universe, Omega=1.0^{+0.15}_{-0.30}, the physical density of baryons, Omega_{b}h^2=0.03 +/- 0.01, the physical density of cold dark matter, Omega_{cdm}h^2=0.2^{+0.2}_{-0.1}$, and the spectral index of primordial scalar fluctuations, n_s=1.08+/-0.1, all at the 95% confidence level. By combining our results with measurements of high-redshift supernovae we constrain the value of the cosmological constant and the fractional amount of pressureless matter in the universe to 0.45<Omega_Lambda<0.75 and 0.25<Omega_{m}<0.50, at the 95% confidence level. Our results are consistent with a flat universe and the shape parameter deduced from large scale structure, and in marginal agreement with the baryon density from big bang nucleosynthesis.
We used the mark weighted correlation functions (MCFs), $W(s)$, to study the large scale structure of the Universe. We studied five types of MCFs with the weighting scheme $rho^alpha$, where $rho$ is the local density, and $alpha$ is taken as $-1, -0 .5, 0, 0.5$, and 1. We found that different MCFs have very different amplitudes and scale-dependence. Some of the MCFs exhibit distinctive peaks and valleys that do not exist in the standard correlation functions. Their locations are robust against the redshifts and the background geometry, however it is unlikely that they can be used as ``standard rulers to probe the cosmic expansion history. Nonetheless we find that these features may be used to probe parameters related with the structure formation history, such as the values of $sigma_8$ and the galaxy bias. Finally, after conducting a comprehensive analysis using the full shapes of the $W(s)$s and $W_{Delta s}(mu)$s, we found that, combining different types of MCFs can significantly improve the cosmological parameter constraints. Compared with using only the standard correlation function, the combinations of MCFs with $alpha=0, 0.5, 1$ and $alpha=0, -1, -0.5, 0.5, 1$ can improve the constraints on $Omega_m$ and $w$ by $approx30%$ and $50%$, respectively. We find highly significant evidence that MCFs can improve cosmological parameter constraints.
The redshift dependence of the cosmic microwave background temperature is one of the key cosmological observables. In the standard cosmological model one has $T(z)=T_0(1+z)$, where $T_0$ is the present-day temperature. Deviations from this behavior w ould imply the presence of new physics. Here we discuss how the combination of all currently available direct and indirect measurements of $T(z)$ constrains the common phenomenological parametrization $T(z)=T_0(1+z)^{1-beta}$, and obtain the first sub-percent constraint on the $beta$ parameter, specifically $beta=(7.6pm8.0)times10^{-3}$ at the $68.3%$ confidence level.
