... The search for distant objects which can be both galaxies and quasars is one of the most important problems of observational astrphysics, because it allows one to determine cosmological parameters connected with the time of appearence and evolution of stellar systems, large scale structure of the Universe. ... Radio galaxies are important objects to be studied because they are sources of infrared-optical-ultraviolet continuum, emission lines and continual radio emission. ...

... The sample of the Local Volume galaxies (distance smaller than 10 Mpc) gives a unique opportunity to study the properties of galaxies including the weakest objects: the absolute magnitude M B -10 and the virial mass M vir 10 9 M x263C;. ... Luminosity function of the Local Volume galaxies. ... The luminosity functions for galaxies are presented: red dashed line - from the 2dFGRS survey (Norberg et al. 2002); blue dash-dotted line - from the SDSS survey (Blanton et al. ...

... Since the pioneering work of Markarian ([ 1967 ]) objective prism surveys were recognized as a powerful tool to search for galaxies of various types of activity. ... Of special interest are blue compact galaxies (BCGs). ... A third sample of BCGs of Popescu et al. ([ 1997 ], [ 1998 ]) contains about 200 BCGs distributed in four regions of the northern sky and is based on a sample selected on the Hamburg Quasar Survey (HQS; Hagen et al.
