We present the Prime Focus Spectrograph (PFS) Galaxy Evolution pillar of the 360-night PFS Subaru Strategic Program. This 130-night program will capitalize on the wide wavelength coverage and massive multiplexing capabilities of PFS to study the evolution of typical galaxies from cosmic dawn to the present. From Lyman alpha emitters at z~7 to probe reionization, drop-outs at z~3 to map the inter-galactic medium in absorption, and a continuum-selected sample at z~1.5, we will chart the physics of galaxy evolution within the evolving cosmic web. This article is dedicated to the memory of Olivier Le Fevre, who was an early advocate for the construction of PFS, and a key early member of the Galaxy Evolution Working Group.

    astro-ph.GA 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Confirmation of 77 new heavily reddened quasars at 1.5 < z < 3.9 with high luminosities and extinctions, showing they are deficient in hot and warm dust relative to blue quasars and supporting a blow-out feedback phase.

  3. Hidden Monsters with SPHEREx I: A goldmine for heavily reddened quasars at cosmic noon

    astro-ph.GA 2026-05 accept novelty 7.0

    SPHEREx data confirm 77 new luminous heavily reddened quasars at 1.5<z<3.9 that are hot-dust poor relative to unobscured quasars, supporting a blow-out feedback phase.

  4. Baryons in the Darkest Sites of the Universe

    astro-ph.CO 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Stacking 3455 CHIME/FRB sightlines on 1288 SDSS voids shows a 3.2 sigma DM deficit toward centers, implying 60 percent baryon underdensity consistent with galaxy underdensity and hydrodynamical simulations.

  5. Lyman-Alpha Forest and its Cross-Correlation with High-Redshift Galaxies in Effective Field Theory at the Field Level

    astro-ph.CO 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    An EFT-based field-level forward model for the Lyman-alpha forest matches simulations at the percent level on quasi-linear scales and generates mocks for DESI and DESI-II analyses.

  6. The Role of Cluster Environments in Quiescent Galaxy Stellar Halo Assembly

    astro-ph.GA 2026-04 conditional novelty 6.0

    Cluster environments accelerate stellar halo growth in massive quiescent galaxies but suppress it in the lowest-mass ones, based on stacked surface-brightness profiles of ~96,000 galaxies at 0.1<z<1.

  7. Constraining reionization morphology and source properties with 21cm galaxy cross-correlation surveys

    astro-ph.CO 2026-01 conditional novelty 6.0

    Simulation-based inference on mock 21cm-galaxy cross-power spectra shows these measurements can tightly constrain neutral fraction, overdensity, and source escape fraction and star-formation efficiency, if redshifts a...

  8. Bridging Simulations and EFT: A Hybrid Model of the Lyman-Alpha Forest Field

    astro-ph.CO 2025-12 conditional novelty 6.0

    A hybrid EFT forward model using N-body displacements reproduces the simulated Lyman-alpha forest to 5% at k <= 1 h/Mpc with a white-noise residual.

  9. Exploring the Origin of Rejuvenating Gas from MaNGA Nearby Galaxies

    astro-ph.GA 2025-10 conditional novelty 6.0

    Most nearby 'rejuvenating' galaxies — those that restarted star formation within the last ~200 Myr — are fueled by gas already present in the galaxy, not by accreted metal-poor gas; one MaNGA galaxy shows clear extern...

  10. The Compressed 3D Lyman-Alpha Forest Bispectrum

    astro-ph.CO 2025-10 conditional novelty 6.0

    The Lyman-alpha forest bispectrum can be compressed into 26 skew spectra, including a new shifted variant, with tree-level EFT predictions matching simulations at 1-2 sigma up to k≈0.17 h/Mpc.

  11. Galactic Archaeology with the Subaru `\=Onohi`ula Prime Focus Spectrograph Strategic Program

    Cross-correlation of CLAMATO Lyman-alpha forest with COSMOS galaxies yields stellar-mass-dependent biases of approximately 2.1, 3.2, and 3.8, corresponding to halo masses of log M_h ~ 10.5, 11.7, and 12.1 from Bolshoi...
