In 37 massive ETGs, the IMF becomes less bottom-heavy with radius, with average α_IMF falling from 2.16 to 1.74 and IMF gradients dominating M/L variations over stellar population effects.

Resolved HI observations of six baryon-dominated dwarf galaxy candidates show four are dark-matter deficient with high baryon efficiency, two in isolated environments without tidal signs.
The low-mass IMF in Boötes I is consistent with the Milky Way within 68% confidence for broken power-law and lognormal forms, indicating universality at low metallicity.
