Scientific paper

The authors present a study of the distribution of faint galaxies, in particular blue compact dwarf galaxies (BCG), in voids outlined by bright galaxies. The results show that the hierarchy of voids continues to dwarf galaxies. Galaxies in voids defined by brighter galaxies are concentrated to void walls, but a certain fraction of them are located also in the central regions of voids. The distribution of BCGs is very close to that of other dwarf galaxies. The median distance of BCGs from nearest neighbours is approximately 0.7 h-1 Mpc, which indicates that these galaxies lie in outlying parts of systems of galaxies defined by normal galaxies.
