The combination of galaxy–galaxy lensing (GGL) and galaxy clustering is a powerful probe of low-redshift matter clustering, especially if it is extended to the non-linear regime. To this end, we use anN-body and halo occupation distribution (HOD) emulator method to model the redMaGiC sample of colour-selected passive galaxies in the Dark Energy Survey (DES), adding parameters that describe central galaxy incompleteness, galaxy assembly bias, and a scale-independent multiplicative lensing biasAlens. We use this emulator to forecast cosmological constraints attainable from the GGL surface density profile ΔΣ(rp) and the projected galaxy correlation functionwp, gg(rp) in the final (Year 6) DES data set over scales. For aprior onAlenswe forecast precisions of,, andon Ωm, σ8, and, marginalized over all halo occupation distribution (HOD) parameters as well asAlens. Adding scalesimproves theS8precision by a factor of ∼1.6 relative to a large scale () analysis, equivalent to increasing the survey area by a factor of ∼2.6. Sharpening theAlensprior tofurther improves theS8precision to, and it amplifies the gain from including non-linear scales. Our emulator achieves per cent-level accuracy similar to the projected DES statistical uncertainties, demonstrating the feasibility of a fully non-linear analysis. Obtaining precise parameter constraints from multiple galaxy types and from measurements that span linear and non-linear clustering offers many opportunities for internal cross-checks, which can diagnose systematics and demonstrate the robustness of cosmological results.
