We conduct a survey for Lyman break galaxies (LBGs) and Lyman alpha emitters (LAEs) in the environs of six and 17 z ∼ 4 quasars respectively, probing scales of R≲9h−1Mpc. We detect an enhancement of galaxies (both LBGs and LAEs) in quasar fields, a positive and strong quasar-galaxy cross-correlation function, consistent with a power-law shape, and a strong galaxy auto-correlation function in quasar fields. The three mentioned results are all indicators that quasars trace massive dark matter halos in the early universe.
