Scientific paper

We present new results from a multi-wavelength model of galaxy formation, which combines a semi-analytical treatment of the formation of galaxies within the CDM framework with a sophisticated treatment of absorption and emission of radiation by dust. We find that the model, which incorporates a top-heavy IMF in bursts, agrees well with the evolution of the rest-frame far-UV luminosity function over the range z=0-6, with the IR number counts in all bands measured by SPITZER, and with the observed evolution of the mid-IR luminosity function for z=0-2.
