We use very deep (R_lim=27) UGRI imaging to study the evolution of the faint end of the UV-selected galaxy luminosity function from z~4 to z~2. We find that the number of sub-L* galaxies increases from z~4 to z~3 while the number of bright…

(abridged) We report the UV luminosity function (LF) of Lyman break galaxies at z~5 derived from a deep and wide survey using the Subaru/Suprime-Cam. Target fields consist of two blank regions of the sky (the HDF-N and J0053+1234), and the…
