abstract
We present cosmological constraints derived from peak counts, minimum counts, and the angular power spectrum of the Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam first-year (HSC Y1) weak lensing shear catalog. Weak lensing peak and minimum counts contain non-Gaussian information and hence are complementary to the conventional two-point statistics in constraining cosmology. In this work, we forward-model the three summary statistics and their dependence on cosmology, using a suite of $N$-body simulations tailored to the HSC Y1 data. We investigate systematic and astrophysical effects including intrinsic alignments, baryon feedback, multiplicative bias, and photometric redshift uncertainties. We mitigate the impact of these systematics by applying cuts on angular scales, smoothing scales, statistic bins, and tomographic redshift bins. By combining peaks, minima, and the power spectrum, assuming a flat-$\Lambda$CDM model, we obtain $S_{8} \equiv \sigma_8\sqrt{\Omega_m/0.3}= 0.810^{+0.022}_{-0.026}$, a 35\% tighter constraint than that obtained from the angular power spectrum alone. Our results are in agreement with other studies using HSC weak lensing shear data, as well as with Planck 2018 cosmology and recent CMB lensing constraints from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope and the South Pole Telescope.

KiDS-1000: Improved constraints on cosmology, intrinsic alignments and baryonic feedback from clipped cosmic shear
Combining clipped and standard shear correlation functions from KiDS-1000 tightens S8 by 16% and w0 by 24%, yielding S8=0.724±0.027 and w0=-1.24+0.26-0.28, consistent with ΛCDM.

Weak-lensing Shear-Selected Galaxy Clusters from the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program: III. A precision cosmological sample enabled by optical confirmation
fCAMIRA measures photometric redshifts for 129 shear-selected clusters with mean bias about 0.005 and scatter about 0.008, and forecasts that these systematics have negligible impact on cosmological constraints for HS...

Non-linear infusion of intrinsic alignment and source clustering: impact on non-Gaussian cosmic shear statistics
A simulated-sky pipeline with six intrinsic-alignment and source-clustering models shows the delta-NLA model contaminates non-Gaussian cosmic shear probes most strongly, with underdense probes best able to distinguish models.

Is $\omega_0 \omega_a$CDM a good model for the clumpy Universe?
Against a Gaussian-process reconstruction of 15 sigma8(z) measurements, the DESI w0waCDM model fits slightly better than LambdaCDM, but the difference is tiny and the comparison metric is biased.
