Scientific paper

In this introductory talk we will establish connections between the statistical analysis of galaxy clustering in cosmology and recent work in mainstream spatial statistics. The lecture will review the methods of spatial statistics used by both sets of scholars, having in mind the cross-fertilizing purpose of the meeting series. Special topics will be: description of the galaxy samples, selection effects and biases, correlation functions, nearest neighbor distances, void probability functions, Fourier analysis, and structure statistics.
