The impact of galaxy cluster mergers on the properties of the resident galaxies remains poorly understood. In this paper, we investigate the effects of merging environments on star formation (SF) activity in nearby clusters ($0.04<z<0.06$)…
There are hints suggesting that properties of galaxy populations in dark matter haloes may depend on their large-scale environment. Recent works point out that very low-density environments influence halo occupation distribution (HOD),…
We use semi-analytic models and cosmological merger trees to provide the initial conditions for multi-merger numerical hydrodynamic simulations, and exploit these simulations to explore the effect of galaxy interaction and merging on star…
According to the database from the first paper, we select 180 pairs with dV < 800 km/s and Dp < 60 kpc containing Markarian (MRK) galaxies. We study the dependence of galaxies integral parameters, star-formation (SF) and active galactic…
Enhanced star formation (SF) with star-forming neighboring galaxies bolsters hydrodynamical contributions during paired interactions. Although the relative spin orientation between interacting galaxies can influence this effect, it has not…
We investigate the dynamical effects of an interaction between an initially barred galaxy and a small spherical companion using an N-body/SPH algorithm. In the models described here the small companion passes through the disc of the larger…
We use a semi-analytic model of galaxy formation to study signatures of large-scale modulations in the star formation (SF) activity in galaxies. In order to do this we carefully define local and global estimators of the density around…
Observations indicate that central galaxies show a significant alignment of their main shape axes with other galaxies in their group, as well as with the large-scale structure of the universe. Simulations have corroborated this finding,…
We investigate the environmental dependence of star formation and the morphology of galaxies in the local universe based on a volume-limited sample (0.030<z<0.065 and M_r<M_r^*+2) constructed from the data of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey.…
We study the dependence of the properties of group galaxies on the surrounding large-scale environment, using SDSS-DR7 data. Galaxies are ranked according to their luminosity within each group and classified morphologically by the S\'ersic…
A study of the group properties of galaxies in our immediate neighborhood provides a singular opportunity to observationally constrain the halo mass function, a fundamental characterization of galaxy formation. Detailed studies of…
(Abridged) We present in this paper a detailed analysis of the effect of environment on the star-formation activity of galaxies within the EDR of the SDSS. We have used the Halpha emission line to derive the star-formation rate (SFR) for…
The mass and structural assembly of galaxies is a matter of intense debate. Current theoretical models predict the existence of a linear relationship between galaxy size ($R_e$) and the host dark matter halo virial radius ($R_h$).\\ By…
We examine the relation between galaxy properties and environment in the SDSS DR2, quantifying environment in terms of the mass of the host halo, which is obtained with a new iterative group finder. We find that galaxy type fractions scale…
We analyse the dependence of clustering properties of galaxies as a function of their large-scale environment. In order to characterize the environment on large scales, we use the catalogue of future virialized superstructures (FVS) by…
The evolution of galaxies is known to be connected to their position within the large-scale structure and their local environmental density. We investigate the relative importance of these using the underlying dark matter density field…
We assess the morphology-density relation, H-alpha linewidth-density relation, and the effects of nearby companions for 300 galaxies selected from low-density environments of the Center for Astrophysics Redshift Survey. Both the…

We investigate the suppression of star formation in galaxy pairs based on the isolated galaxy pair sample derived from the SDSS survey. By comparing the star formation rate between late-type galaxies in galaxy pairs and those in the…
Collisions and interactions between gas-rich galaxies are thought to be pivotal stages in their formation and evolution, causing the rapid production of new stars, and possibly serving as a mechanism for fueling supermassive black holes…
