Outline of Final Research Achievements

I have performed theoretical and observational studies using galaxy surveys to understand properties of the cosmic acceleration. On theoretical side, considering the fact that future large surveys can determine the dark energy properties with percent accuracy, I have developed a theoretical model which accurately predicts the galaxy power spectrum by combining the cosmological perturbation theory and the empirical halo model. On the observational side, I have led the cosmological analysis of the international project called the Subaru FastSound Galaxy Survey, and I performed a test on gravity theory at the distant universe 10 billion years away. For the first time in the world, I have found that the gravity law is consistent with Einsteins's general relativity at such distant universe.
