Towards precision cosmology from large-scale structure of the universe

<!--HTML--><p>The last decade has seen a tremendous improvement in theoretical understanding of galaxy clustering on cosmological scales, which culminated in recent CMB-independent measurement of&nbsp;cosmological parameters from spectroscopic galaxy surveys. In this talk I will review the main conceptual and practical developments which led to this progress. I will also highlight the main lessons we&nbsp;learned so far and discuss further improvements that have to be made in order to optimally extract information from the ongoing galaxy surveys such as DESI and Euclid. I will conclude by arguing that in&nbsp;the next couple of years the large-scale structure will become as powerful probe of cosmology as the CMB, and show the immense potential that the combination of the two has in answering some of the&nbsp;open questions in cosmology.&nbsp;</p> TH colloquia: https://cern.zoom.us/j/67346292748?pwd=ZnRkQWh0ZXVFQTc5K256QW5NcEcrdz09
