Searching for dark matter isocurvature initial conditions with N-body
  Simulations
  Small fraction of isocurvature perturbations may exist and correlate with
adiabatic perturbations in the primordial perturbations. Naively switching off
isocurvature perturbations may lead to biased results. We study the effect of
dark matter isocurvature on the structure formation through N-body simulations.
From the best fit values, we run four sets of simulation with different initial
conditions and different box sizes. We find that, if the fraction of dark
matter isocurvature is small, we can not detect its signal through matter power
spectrum and two point correlation function with large scale survey. However,
the halo mass function can give an obvious signal. Compared to 5% difference on
matter power spectrum, it can get 37% at $z = 3$ on halo mass function. This
indicates that future high precise cluster count experiment can give stringent
constraints on dark matter isocurvature perturbations.
