Scientific paper

The formation and evolution of galaxies is strongly influenced by environment, particularly in clusters, where galaxy luminosity functions vary in shape with the dynamical state of the cluster (relaxed or in various stages of merging), with the photometric band considered and with the position in the cluster. We present here results concerning the optical GLFs in several relaxed and merging clusters.
