abstract

The galaxy bias parameters are crucial for modeling the large-scale structure in cosmology, yet uncertainties in these parameters often degrade the precision of cosmological constraints. In this work, we investigate how different Halo Occupation Distribution (HOD) models impact the priors of the galaxy bias parameters, particularly focusing on quadratic bias parameters. We generate galaxy mock catalogs using various HOD models, including a standard model and one incorporating halo concentration dependence to account for assembly bias, and measure the galaxy bias parameters with high precision using the quadratic field method. We show that the inclusion of assembly bias associated to halo concentration could significantly impact the distributions of quadratic galaxy bias parameters, especially $b_2$. Our findings suggest that accounting for assembly bias or other galaxy-halo connection models is important for obtaining accurate priors on the galaxy bias parameters, thereby improving the robustness of cosmological analyses with galaxy clustering.

  3. Web-Halo Model Peak-Background Split (WHM-PBS): halo bias as a distribution, not a number

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    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☉.

  4. Simulation-Based Priors for HI Bias from Halo Occupation Physics

    astro-ph.CO 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A conditional normalizing flow learned from two simulation suites maps HI halo-occupation parameters to EFT bias parameters, producing correlated non-Gaussian priors that are much tighter than flat priors for 21 cm analyses.

    Simulation-based priors applied to DESI DR1 full-shape data sharpen cosmological constraints (σ8 error halved) and yield Mν<0.090 eV in w0waCDM, but the results depend on HOD modeling assumptions.
