Abstract
We present constraints on the flat ΛCDM cosmological model through a joint analysis of galaxy abundance, galaxy clustering and galaxy-galaxy lensing observables with the Kilo-Degree Survey. Our theoretical model combines a flexible conditional stellar mass function, to describe the galaxy-halo connection, with a cosmological N-body simulation-calibrated halo model to describe the non-linear matter field. First, we will introduce the halo model and present a vital correction to the underlying assumptions – beyond-linear halo bias. Then we will present our cosmological results and show that they are comparable to, and consistent with, joint ‘3×2pt’ clustering-lensing analyses that additionally include a cosmic shear observable. This analysis therefore brings attention to the significant constraining power in the often-excluded non-linear scales for galaxy clustering and galaxy-galaxy lensing observables.
