Nonlinear Evolution of the Genus Statistics in the Zeldovich Approximation

Evolution of the genus density is calculated from Gaussian initial conditions using the Zeldovich approximation. A new approach is introduced that formulates the desired quantity in a rotationally invariant manner. It is shown that the normalized genus density does not depend on the initial spectral shape but is a function of the fluctuation amplitude only.
