I will present a variety of new results on the connection between super massive galaxies and
their dark matter halos. First, I will discuss the “lensing is low” puzzle. This is the observation
that the lensing signal around luminous red galaxies from the BOSS survey is lower by 20-
30% than predicted by galaxy clustering. Second, I will show how not only galaxy mass, but
also the shapes of their light profiles are connected with halo mass (the M10-M100 plane). I
will connect this observation with the assembly history of massive galaxies and the growth of
their in-situ and ex-situ components. I will present comparisons between the light profiles of
massive galaxies in the Hyper-Surime Cam surveys and predictions from the Illustris and
TNG simulations. I will briefly present new results on the accuracy and precision of detections
of the splash-back radius of dark matter halos. Finally, I will discuss future applications with
the DESI survey which is currently commissioning and will soon collect science verification
data.
