Zusammenfassung:The initial power spectrum of density perturbations, generated during the inflationary epoch, is now constrained by observations on scales $\lambda>5$~Mpc and has a power-law form. The peculiarities of the inflationary process can lead to the appearance of non-power-law contributions to this spectrum, such as peaks. The exact size and shape of the peak cannot be predicted in advance. In this paper, we propose methods for searching for such peaks in the region of the spectrum with $\lambda0.1$~Mpc manifest in the clustering of galaxies, as well as affect their mass function, sizes, and density. Studying these characteristics of distant galaxies will allow us to constrain cosmological models with peaks.
