We present a derivation of two-point correlations of general tracers in the peak-background split (PBS) framework by way of a rigorous definition of the PBS argument. Our expressions only depend on connected matter correlators and "renormalized" bias parameters with clear physical interpretation, and are independent of any coarse-graining scale. This result should be contrasted with the naive expression derived from a local bias expansion of the tracer number density with respect to the matter density perturbation \delta_L coarse-grained on a scale R_L. In the latter case, the predicted tracer correlation function receives contributions of order <\delta_L^n> at each perturbative order n, whereas, in our formalism, these are absorbed in the PBS bias parameters at all orders. Further, this approach naturally predicts both a scale-dependent bias ~ k^2 such as found for peaks of the density field, and the scale-dependent bias induced by primordial non-Gaussianity in the initial conditions. The only assumption made about the tracers is that their abundance at a given position depends solely on the matter distribution within a finite region around that position.

Two-loop renormalization and running of galaxy bias
Galaxy bias renormalization is extended to two loops for the complete fifth-order operator basis, with a single universal function controlling double-hard limits and new two-loop renormalization group equations.

Wonderings on Wiggly Bispectra: Non-linear Evolution and Reconstruction of Oscillations in the Squeezed Bispectrum
Non-linear structure formation damps oscillatory squeezed bispectra with cos(µ ln(q/k)) shape by k ~ 0.3 h/Mpc at z = 0, and iterative reconstruction recovers most of the signal.

Web-Halo Model Peak-Background Split (WHM-PBS): halo bias as a distribution, not a number
Halo bias is derived as an environment-inherited probability distribution whose spread simultaneously produces halo stochasticity, EFT prior bands, and the measured bias–concentration inversion at M ≈ 1.7×10¹³ h⁻¹M☉.
