Scientific paper

The large scale gravitational potential distribution and its influence on the large-scale matter clustering is considered on the basis of six simulations. It is found that the mean separation between zero levels of the potential along random straight lines coincides with the theoretical expectations, but it scatters largely. A strong link of the initial potential and the structure evolution is shown. It is found that the under-dense and over-dense regions correlate with regions of positive and negative gravitational potential at large redshifts. The over-dense regions arise due to a slow matter flow into the negative potential regions, where more pronounced non-linear structures appear. Such regions are related to the formation of huge super-large scale structures seen in the galaxy distribution.
