Abstract
Models of ultralight dark matter can lead to significant iso-curvature fluctuations, in the form of a white-noise at the time of formation, and a non-negligible velocity dispersion. I will discuss how these modify the gravitational growth of structures and introduce distinct features in the matter distribution.
