Differential 2.2um (K-band) luminosity functions are presented for a complete sample of 1570 nearby Vgsr < 3000 km/s, where Vgsr is the velocity measured with respect to the Galactic standard of rest), bright (K < 10 mag), galaxies…

Differential K-band luminosity functions (LFs) are presented for a complete sample of 1613 nearby bright galaxies segregated by visible morphology. The LF for late-type spirals follows a power law that rises towards low luminosities whereas…

The morphological dependence of the luminosity function is studied using a sample containing approximately 1500 bright galaxies classified into Hubble types by visual inspections for a homogeneous sample obtained from the Sloan Digital Sky…

We use a sample of 55 groups and 6 clusters of galaxies ranging in mass from 7 x 10^11 Msun to 1.5 x 10^15 Msun to examine the correlation of the Ks-band luminosity with mass discovered by Lin et al. (2003). We use the 2MASS catalog and…

We have determined K-band luminosity functions for 13,325 local Universe galaxies as a function of morphology and color (for K_tot <= 10.75). Our sample is drawn from the 2MASS Extended Source Catalog, with all sample galaxies having…

We use a large sample of galaxies from the Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) to calculate galaxy luminosity and stellar mass functions in the local Universe. We estimate k-corrections, evolution…

We present the K-band local luminosity function derived froma sample of 1056 bright (K<15) K-selected galaxies from the Hawaii-AAO K-band redshift survey. The Hawaii-AAO K-band redshift survey covers 4 equatorial fields with a total area of…

We derive the galaxy luminosity function in the $K_s$ band for galaxies in 24 clusters to provide a local reference for higher redshift studies and to analyse how and if the luminosity function varies according to environment and cluster…

There are two major approaches to modelling galaxy evolution. The traditional view is that the most massive galaxies were assembled early and have evolved with steeply declining star formation rates since a redshift of 2 or higher.…

Near-infrared properties of 451 galaxies with distances D \leq 10 Mpc are considered basing on the all-sky two micron survey (2MASS). A luminosity function of the galaxies in the K-band is derived within [-25,-11] mag. The local (D < 8 Mpc)…

K band observations of the galaxy populations of three high redshift (z=0.8-1.0), X-ray selected, massive clusters are presented. The observations reach a depth of K=21.5, corresponding to K*+3.5 mag. The evolution of the galaxy properties…

We present a measurement of the K-band luminosity function (LF) of field galaxies obtained from near-infrared imaging of a sample of 345 galaxies selected from the Stromlo-APM Redshift Survey. The LF is well-fitted over the ten magnitude…

We study the luminosity function of galaxies in Hickson groups using our recent redshift survey of galaxies in and around 17 of these groups. We find that the galaxies in these regions have a luminosity function with M* = -19.5 + 5 log h,…

In a recent paper Loveday et al. (1992) have presented new results on the luminosity function for a sample of galaxies with $b_J \le 17.15$. After having morphologically classified each galaxy (early--type, late--type, merged or uncertain),…

We present luminosity and surface brightness distributions of 40,111 galaxies with K-band photometry from the United Kingdom Infrared Telescope (UKIRT) Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS) Large Area Survey (LAS), Data Release 3 and optical…

We combine the 2MASS extended source catalogue and the 2dFGRS to produce an IR selected galaxy catalogue with 17,173 measured redshifts. We use this extensive dataset to estimate the J and K-band galaxy luminosity functions. The LFs are…

We present the near-infrared (Ks-band) luminosity function of galaxies in two z~1 cluster candidates, 3C336 and Q1335+28. A third cluster, 3C289, was observed but found to be contaminated by a foreground system. Our wide field imaging data…

(Abriged) We present a measurement of the evolution of the rest-frame K-band luminosity function to z ~ 1.2 using a sample of more than 5000 K-selected galaxies drawn from the MUNICS dataset. Distances and absolute K-band magnitudes are…

A magnitude limited sample of nearly 9000 early-type galaxies, in the redshift range 0.01 < z < 0.3, was selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey using morphological and spectral criteria. The sample was used to study how early-type…

We measured evolution of the $K$-band luminosity function and stellar mass function for red and blue galaxies at $z<1.2$ using a sample of 353 594 $I<24$ galaxies in 8.26 square degrees of Bo\"otes. We addressed several sources of…
