We focus on the complex relationship between the shape of dark matter halos and the cosmological models underlying their formation. We used three realistic cosmological models from the Dark Energy Universe Simulation suite. They have…
The evolution of a stellar bar transforms not only the galactic disk, but also the host dark matter halo. We present high resolution, fully self-consistent N-body simulations that clearly demonstrate that dark matter halo central density…
In this review we outline the major points of ab-initio cosmological models focusing on some galaxy evolution unresolved problems. In particular our knowledge of the star formation rate which leads galaxy evolution, i.e. luminosity, colors…
In the hierarchical structure formation model cosmic halos are supposed to form by accretion of smaller units along anisotropic direction, defined by large-scale filamentary structures. After the epoch of primary mass aggregation (which…
We present a theoretical model in which the recently detected over-massive black holes (OBHs), and possibly Little Red Dots (LRDs), arise during a halo-driven transient phase preceding the established coevolution of supermassive black holes…
We use simulations of Milky Way-sized dark matter haloes from the Aquarius Project to investigate the orbits of substructure haloes likely, according to a semi-analytic galaxy formation model, to host luminous satellites. These tend to…
Using six high resolution dissipationless simulations with a varying box size in a flat LCDM universe, we study the mass and redshift dependence of dark matter halo shapes for M_vir = 9.0e11 - 2.0e14, over the redshift range z=0-3, and for…
We use the extensive catalog of dark matter haloes from the Millennium simulation to investigate the statistics of the mass accretion histories (MAHs) and accretion rates of ~500,000 haloes from redshift z=0 to 6. We find only about 25% of…
We study the evolution of the halo-halo correlation function and bias in four cosmological models (LCDM, OCDM, tauCDM, and SCDM) using very high-resolution N-body simulations. The high force and mass resolution allows dark matter (DM) halos…
Stellar bars are the most common non-axisymmetric structures in galaxies and their impact on the evolution of disc galaxies at all cosmological times can be significant. Classical theory predicts that stellar discs are stabilized against…
We select a sample of Milky Way (MW) mass haloes from a high-resolution version of the EAGLE simulation to study their inner dark matter (DM) content and how baryons alter it. As in previous studies, we find that all haloes are more massive…
It is common practice to describe formal size and mass scales of dark matter halos as spherical overdensities with respect to an evolving density threshold. Here, we critically investigate the evolutionary effects of several such commonly…
The formation and structure of dark matter halos is studied by constrained simulations. A series of experiments of the formation of a 10^12 Msun/h halo is designed to study the dependence of the density profile on its merging history. We…
We study the evolution of the halo-halo correlation function and bias in a LCDM model using very high-resolution N-body simulations. The high force and mass resolution allows dark matter (DM) halos to survive in the tidal fields in…
We investigate the structure of cold dark matter halos using advanced models of spherical collapse and accretion in an expanding Universe. These base on solving time-dependent equations for the moments of the phase-space distribution…
We split the total matter fluid into a bound (halo) component and an unbound (free particles) fluid component that is accreted by the halos. We adopt a different framework that treats the structure formation problem as a gravitational…
We study the evolution of global shapes of galaxies using cosmological simulations. The shapes refer to the components of dark matter (DM), stars and gas at the stellar half-mass radius. Most galaxies undergo a characteristic compaction…
Halo inhabitants are individual stars, stellar streams, star and globular clusters, and dwarf galaxies. Here we compare the two last categories that include objects of similar stellar mass, which are often studied as self-dynamical…
We investigate the growth histories of dark matter halos associated with dwarf satellites in Local Group galaxies and the resultant evolution of the baryonic component. Our model is based on the recently proposed property that the mean…
Recent progress is summarized on the determination of the density distributions of stars and dark matter, stellar kinematics, and stellar population properties, in the extended, low surface brightness halo regions of elliptical galaxies.…
