We use SHARK, a semi-analytic galaxy formation model, to investigate the physical processes involved in dictating the shape, scatter and evolution of the HI-halo mass relation at $0leq z leq 2$. We compare SHARK with HI clustering and spectral stacking of the HI-halo mass relation derived from observations finding excellent agreement with the former and a deficiency of HI in SHARK at $M_{rm vir}approx 10^{12-13} M_{odot}$ in the latter, but otherwise great agreement below and above that mass threshold. In SHARK, we find that the HI mass increases with the halo mass up to a critical mass of $approx 10^{11.8} M_{odot}$; between $sim 10^{11.8}-10^{13}M_{odot}$, the scatter in the relation increases by 0.7 dex and the HI mass decreases with the halo mass on average; at $M_{rm vir} geq 10^{13} M_{odot}$, the HI content continues to increase with halo mass. We find that the critical halo mass of $approx 10^{12} M_{odot}$ is largely set by feedback from Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), and the exact shape and scatter of the HI-halo mass relation around that mass is extremely sensitive to how AGN feedback is modelled, with other physical processes playing a less significant role. We determine the main secondary parameters responsible for the scatter of the HI-halo mass relation, namely the halo spin parameter at $M_{rm vir}leq 10^{11.8} M_{odot}$, and the fractional contribution from substructure to the total halo mass for $M_{rm vir}geq 10^{13} M_{odot}$. The scatter at $10^{11.8}<M_{rm vir}<10^{13} M_{odot}$ is best described by the black-hole-to-stellar mass ratio of the central galaxy, reflecting the AGN feedback relevance. We present a numerical model to populate dark matter-only simulations with HI at $0leq z leq 2$ based solely on halo parameters that are measurable in such simulations.

Measuring the HI-halo mass scaling relation (HIHM) is fundamental to understanding the role of HI in galaxy formation and its connection to structure formation. While direct measurements of the HI mass in haloes are possible using HI-spectral stackin
g, the reported shape of the relation depends on the techniques used to measure it (e.g. monotonically increasing with mass versus flat, mass-independent). Using a simulated HI and optical survey produced with the SHARK semi-analytic galaxy formation model, we investigate how well different observational techniques can recover the intrinsic, theoretically predicted, HIHM relation. We run a galaxy group finder and mimic the HI stacking procedure adopted by different surveys and find we can reproduce their observationally derived HIHM relation. However, none of the adopted techniques recover the underlying HIHM relation predicted by the simulation. We find that systematic effects in halo mass estimates of galaxy groups modify the inferred shape of the HIHM relation from the intrinsic one in the simulation, while contamination by interloping galaxies, not associated with the groups, contribute to the inferred HI mass of a halo mass bin, when using large velocity windows for stacking. The effect of contamination is maximal at Mvir~10^(12-12.5)Msol. Stacking methods based on summing the HI emission spectra to infer the mean HI mass of galaxies of different properties belonging to a group suffer minimal contamination but are strongly limited by the use of optical counterparts, which miss the contribution of dwarf galaxies. Deep spectroscopic surveys will provide significant improvements by going deeper while maintaining high spectroscopic completeness; for example, the WAVES survey will recover ~52% of the total HI mass of the groups with Mvir~10^(14)Msol compared to ~21% in GAMA.
A large variance exists in the amplitude of the Stellar Mass - Halo Mass (SMHM) relation for group and cluster-size halos. Using a sample of 254 clusters, we show that the magnitude gap between the brightest central galaxy (BCG) and its second or fou
rth brightest neighbor accounts for a significant portion of this variance. We find that at fixed halo mass, galaxy clusters with a higher magnitude gap have a higher BCG stellar mass. This relationship is also observed in semi-analytic representations of low-redshift galaxy clusters in simulations. This SMHM-magnitude gap stratification likely results from BCG growth via hierarchical mergers and may link assembly of the halo with the growth of the BCG. Using a Bayesian model, we quantify the importance of the magnitude gap in the SMHM relation using a multiplicative stretch factor, which we find to be significantly non-zero. The inclusion of the magnitude gap in the SMHM relation results in a large reduction in the inferred intrinsic scatter in the BCG stellar mass at fixed halo mass. We discuss the ramifications of this result in the context of galaxy formation models of centrals in group and cluster-sized halos.
The relation between galaxies and dark matter halos is of vital importance for evaluating theoretical predictions of structure formation and galaxy formation physics. We show that the widely used method of abundance matching based on dark matter only
simulations fails at the low mass end because two of its underlying assumptions are broken: only a small fraction of low mass (below 10^9.5 solar masses) halos host a visible galaxy, and halos grow at a lower rate due to the effect of baryons. In this regime, reliance on dark matter only simulations for abundance matching is neither accurate nor self-consistent. We find that the reported discrepancy between observational estimates of the halo masses of dwarf galaxies and the values predicted by abundance matching does not point to a failure of LCDM, but simply to a failure to account for baryonic effects. Our results also imply that the Local Group contains only a few hundred observable galaxies in contrast with the thousands of faint dwarfs that abundance matching would suggest. We show how relations derived from abundance matching can be corrected, so that they can be used self-consistently to calibrate models of galaxy formation.
We quantify evolution in the cluster scale stellar mass - halo mass (SMHM) relations parameters using 2323 clusters and brightest central galaxies (BCGs) over the redshift range $0.03 le z le 0.60$. The precision on inferred SMHM parameters is improv
ed by including the magnitude gap ($rm m_{gap}$) between the BCG and fourth brightest cluster member (M14) as a third parameter in the SMHM relation. At fixed halo mass, accounting for $rm m_{gap}$, through a stretch parameter, reduces the SMHM relations intrinsic scatter. To explore this redshift range, we use clusters, BCGs, and cluster members identified using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey C4 and redMaPPer cluster catalogs and the Dark Energy Survey redMaPPer catalog. Through this joint analysis, we detect no systematic differences in BCG stellar mass, $rm m_{gap}$, and cluster mass (inferred from richness) between the datsets. We utilize the Pareto function to quantify each parameters evolution. We confirm prior findings of negative evolution in the SMHM relations slope (3.5$sigma$) and detect negative evolution in the stretch parameter (4.0$sigma$) and positive evolution in the offset parameter (5.8$sigma$). This observed evolution, combined with the absence of BCG growth, when stellar mass is measured within 50kpc, suggests that this evolution results from changes in the clusters $rm m_{gap}$. For this to occur, late-term growth must be in the intra-cluster light surrounding the BCG. We also compare the observed results to Illustris TNG 300-1 cosmological hydrodynamic simulations and find modest qualitative agreement. However, the simulations lack the evolutionary features detected in the real data.
Linking globular clusters (GCs) to the assembly of their host galaxies is an overarching goal in GC studies. The inference of tight scaling relations between GC system properties and the mass of both the stellar and dark halo components of their host
galaxies are indicative of an intimate physical connection, yet have also raised fundamental questions about how and when GCs form. Specifically, the inferred correlation between the mass of a GC system (Mgc) and the dark matter halo mass (Mhalo) of a galaxy has been posited as a consequence of a causal relation between the formation of dark matter mini-haloes and GC formation during the early epochs of galaxy assembly. We present the first results from a new simulation of a cosmological volume ($L=34.4$~cMpc on a side) from the E-MOSAICS suite, which includes treatments of the formation and evolution of GCs within the framework of a detailed galaxy formation model. The simulated Mgc-Mhalo relation is linear for halo masses $>5times10^{11}~Msun$, and is driven by the hierarchical assembly of galaxies. Below this halo mass, the simulated relation features a downturn, which we show is consistent with observations, and is driven by the underlying stellar mass-halo mass relation of galaxies. Our fiducial model reproduces the observed Mgc-Mstar relation across the full mass range, which we argue is more physically relevant than the Mgc-Mhalo relation. We also explore the physical processes driving the observed constant value of $Mgc / Mhalo sim 5times10^{-5}$ and find that it is the result of a combination of cluster formation physics and cluster disruption.
