| Research Abstract |
1. We developed a semi-analytic model for resolving the problems of galaxy formations and got some interesting results using this semi-analytic model based on the hierarchical clustering. By using this model, we tried to clarify what physical processes, which have never been taken into account in the galaxy formation models, influence on galaxy formations and evolutions. Furthermore, we tried to constrain the cosmological models and some physical processes concerned in the galaxy formations, such as star formations. The detailed topics on the galaxy formations are shown below.
(1) The effects of merging histories of proto-objects on the angular momentum distributions of the present-time dark matter haloes were clarified.
(2) We investigated the effects of the UV background radiation on galaxy formations by using the semi-analytic model including the photoionization process and we clarified its effects on the galaxy formations.
(3) We calculated the detection rate of cold gas in elliptical

galaxies using the semi-analytic model of galaxy formation, and compared it with observations. Then we could constrain the star formation rates in the galaxy formations.
(4) We clarified the physical origin of the color-magnitude relation of elliptical galaxies in clusters of galaxies in the hierarchical clustering scenario by using the semi-analytic model.
(5) The galaxy number counts are analyzed by using the semi-analytic model based on the hierarchical clustering scenario. In this model, we introduced the selection effects due to the rapidly dimming surface brightness at high redshift and the absorption by intergalactic HI clouds and by internal dust, which are not considered in the previous analysis of galaxy counts.
2. The relation between relaxation, the time scale of Lyapunov instabilities, and the Kolmogorov-Sinai time in a one-dimensional gravitating sheet is studied. We found that the relaxation time to the final thermal equilibrium differs from the inverse of the Lyapunov exponents and the Kolmogorov-Sinai time.
3. We found the relation between the two-point spatial correlation function and the density profile of the dark matter halos in the strongly nonlinear regime. Less
