Using a sample of cosmic voids identified in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 7, we study the star formation activity of void galaxies. The properties of galaxies living in voids are compared with those of galaxies living in the…

Despite a history that dates back at least a quarter of a century studies of voids in the large--scale structure of the Universe are bedevilled by a major problem: there exist a large number of quite different void--finding algorithms, a…

We find an analytical solution for the minimal matter density of a void, its central density. It turns out that the voids are not so empty: most of the voids have the central underdensity $\Delta_c \sim -50\%$ (which means that the matter…

This paper aims to investigate the influence of inhomogeneous radiation in void formation. Since the process of void formation is non-linear, a fully relativistic model, which simulates the evolution of voids from the moment of the last…

In this paper, we analysed the halos and voids properties of a GR-based N-body simulation carried out at redshifts z= 0.0 and z= 0.8 as differences between dynamical dark energy models (namely PL and CPL) with respect to LCDM. Analysing the…

A recently-proposed algorithm identifies voids in simulations as the regions associated with halos when the initial overdensity field is negated. We apply this method to the real Universe by running a suite of constrained simulations of the…

To study the impact of sparsity and galaxy bias on void statistics, we use a single large-volume, high-resolution N-body simulation to compare voids in multiple levels of subsampled dark matter, halo populations, and mock galaxies from a…

We analyse the clustering of cosmic voids using a numerical simulation and the main galaxy sample from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. We take into account the classification of voids into two types that resemble different evolutionary modes:…

Voids are the most prominent feature of the large-scale structure of the universe. Still, they have been generally ignored in quantitative analysis of it, essentially due to the lack of an objective tool to identify the voids and to…

Supervoids are regions in the local Universe which do not contain rich clusters of galaxies. We have studied the closest example, the Northern Local Void, situated between the Local, Coma, and the Hercules superclusters. We find that this…

Cosmic voids, the less dense patches of the Universe, are promising laboratories to extract cosmological information. Thanks to their unique low density character, voids are extremely sensitive to diffuse components such as neutrinos and…

We study the formation of voids in a modified gravity model in which gravity is generically stronger or weaker on large scales. We show that void abundances provide complementary information to halo abundances: if normalized to the CMB,…

Cosmic voids are increasingly recognized as a promising tool for cosmological exploration. Their distribution and density profiles are highly responsive to alterations in gravitational theories, along with the influences of dark energy and…

In this paper we review the main and the most recent evidence for the presence of a core radius in the distribution of the dark matter around spiral galaxies. Their rotation curves, coadded according to the galaxy luminosity, conform to an…

We offer an exact analytical equation for the void central region. We show that the central density is solely determined by the amplitude of the initial perturbation. Our results suggest that N-body simulations somewhat overestimate the…

The properties of large underdensities in the distribution of galaxies in the Universe, known as cosmic voids, are potentially sensitive probes of fundamental physics. We use data from the MultiDark suite of N-body simulations and multiple…

We study how the void environment affects the formation and evolution of galaxies in the universe by comparing the ratio of dark matter halo mass to stellar mass of galaxies in voids with galaxies in denser regions. Using spectroscopic…

We investigate the large scale matter distribution adopting QSOs as matter tracer. The quasar catalogue based on the SDSS DR7 is used. The void finding algorithm is presented and statistical properties of void sizes and shapes are…

We use large cosmological N-body simulations to study the subhalo population in galaxy group sized halos. In particular, we look for fossil group candidates with typical masses ~10-25% of Virgo cluster but with an order of magnitude less…

In the standard cosmological model a mysterious cold dark matter (CDM) component dominates the formation of structures. Numerical studies of the formation of CDM halos have produced several robust results that allow unique tests of the…
