title and abstract of my talk will be:
Multi-scale initial conditions for cosmological simulations
A major challenge in cosmological simulations is to bridge the gap between
cosmic sample variance - which requires a large volume to be simulated - and
sufficient resolution in single objects. I present a new code to generate multi-
scale adaptive mesh initial conditions which allows to face this challenge and
enables us to study cosmic structure formation at high local resolution at
variance with cosmic environment.
