Surveying dark matter deficient galaxies (those with dark matter mass to stellar mass ratio $M_{rm dm}/M_{rm star}<1$) in the Illustris simulation of structure formation in the flat-$Lambda$CDM cosmogony, we find $M_{rm star} approx 2 times 10^8, M_sun$ galaxies that have properties similar to those ascribed by citet{vanDokkumetal2018a} to the ultra-diffuse galaxy NGC1052-DF2. The Illustris simulation also contains more luminous dark matter deficient galaxies. Illustris galaxy subhalo 476171 is a particularly interesting outlier, a massive and very compact galaxy with $M_{rm star} approx 9 times 10^{10}, M_sun$ and $M_{rm dm}/M_{rm star} approx 0.1$ and a half-stellar-mass radius of $approx 2$ kpc. If the Illustris simulation and the $Lambda$CDM model are accurate, there are a significant number of dark matter deficient galaxies, including massive luminous compact ones. It will be interesting to observationally discover these galaxies, and to also more clearly understand how they formed, as they are likely to provide new insight into and constraints on models of structure formation and the nature of dark matter.
(Abridged) Any viable cosmological model in which galaxies interact predicts the existence of primordial and tidal dwarf galaxies (TDGs). In particular, in the standard model of cosmology ($Lambda$CDM), according to the dual dwarf galaxy theorem, the
We study Planck 2015 cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy data using the energy density inhomogeneity power spectrum generated by quantum fluctuations during an early epoch of inflation in the non-flat $Lambda$CDM model. Unlike earlier analys
We perform Markov chain Monte Carlo analyses to put constraints on the non-flat $phi$CDM inflation model using Planck 2015 cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy data and baryon acoustic oscillation distance measurements. The $phi$CDM model is
We use the Evolution and Assembly of GaLaxies and their Environments ( EAGLE ) suite of hydrodynamical cosmological simulations to measure offsets between the centres of stellar and dark matter components of galaxies. We find that the vast majority (
Low mass galaxies are expected to be dark matter dominated even within their centrals. Recently two observations reported two dwarf galaxies in group environment with very little dark matter in their centrals. We explore the population and origins of
