Velocityformer model boosts galaxy velocity reconstruction for cosmology

Researchers have developed Velocityformer, a novel equivariant graph transformer architecture designed to enhance the reconstruction of galaxy velocities for cosmological studies. This model specifically addresses the broken symmetry inherent in observational data, leading to a significant 35% improvement in the correlation coefficient compared to standard linear theory baselines. Velocityformer demonstrates high data efficiency, achieving accuracy with minimal simulations, and shows strong generalization capabilities across different input geometries and cosmological parameters.

    Velocityformer: Broken-Symmetry-Matched Equivariant Graph Transformers for Cosmological Velocity Reconstruction

    Precise measurement of the kinematic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (kSZ) effect - a probe of the large-scale distribution of baryonic matter, a key observable for cosmological inference - requires accurate reconstruction of galaxy velocities from spectroscopic surveys. The signal-to-noise r…
