The UV luminosity function at z~7 rises steeply with slope alpha=-1.98 to M_UV=-12.3 with no turnover, indicating faint galaxies dominate the ionizing photon budget during reionization.

BonFIRE and CampFIRE simulations show bursty clustered star formation in early galaxies and predict UV luminosity functions matching observations at faint magnitudes with a turnover at M_UV approx -14 but overpredicting brighter galaxies.
Shorter star formation timescales in a semi-analytical UV LF model explain the slow evolution observed by JWST at z>10 without requiring changes in star formation efficiency.
Small-scale power spectrum boosts alter ionization morphology enough that 21 cm power spectra and bubble sizes remain distinguishable from Lambda CDM under current constraints, offering SKA a probe for such deviations.

Probing power spectrum enhancement at small scales with the SKA
