Spectral expansions of cosmological fields

• We give a review of the theory of random fields defined on the observable part of the Universe that satisfy the cosmological principle, i.e.,invariant with respect to the 6-dimensional group G of theisometries of the time slice of theFriedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker standard chart. Our new results include proof of spectral expansions of scalar and spin weighted G-invariant cosmological fields in open, flat, and closed cosmological models.
