ABSTRACT:

Galaxy clustering is the aggregation of galaxies in the universe driven by the force of gravity. Galaxies tend to form bigger structures like clusters or filaments that weave the Cosmic Web. This Large Scale Structure of the Universe can be understood as the resulting distribution of galaxies, a process in which all galaxies are subjected to common forces and share universal properties. The analysis of this distribution can be dealt with Point Processes techniques, the study of point configurations in a framework. In this thesis work we use this brach of statistics in three different approaches: summary statistics, data mining and modeling. Results show that Point Process are an excellent tool to unveil the properties of the galaxy distribution as well as to model their patterns.
