Title

The role of environment in dark matter halo formation and evolution
Co-authors

Abstract

The first part of my talk deals with the NEXUS+ algorithm. This is a multiscale and automatic tool for segmeting the Cosmic Web into it's components: clusters, filaments, walls and voids. The NEXUS+ shows clear improvements for filament and wall detections compared to other methods. The superiority of the new algorithm is especially evident when tracing the time evolution of the Cosmic Web. NEXUS+ is an ideal tool for the detection and study of the anisotropic matter distribution. In the second part I will focus on the correlation between the Cosmic Web and the properties of dark matter haloes. My emphasis will be on understading what is the cause of the correlations and how these arise.
