Large scale structure of the universe and cosmological perturbation theory

TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the formalism and applications of non-linear perturbation theory (PT) to understand the large-scale structure of the universe, from the linear to the nonlinear regime.

Mapping the universe

TL;DR: Maps of the galaxy distribution in the nearby universe reveal large coherent structures, including the "Great Wall", one of several serious challenges to current understanding of the origin and evolution of the large-scale distribution of matter in the universe.

The density and peculiar velocity fields of nearby galaxies

TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the quantitative science that can be and has been done with redshift and peculiar velocity surveys of galaxies in the nearby universe, and discuss in some detail the various quantitative cosmological tests that can also be carried out with the redshift data.
