abstract
A study of the group properties of galaxies in our immediate neighborhood provides a singular opportunity to observationally constrain the halo mass function, a fundamental characterization of galaxy formation. Detailed studies of individual groups have provided the coefficients of scaling relations between a proxy for the virial radius, velocity dispersion, and mass that usefully allows groups to be defined over the range $10^{10} - 10^{15}$ $M_\odot$. At a second hierarchical level, associations are defined as regions around collapsed halos extending to the zero velocity surface at the decoupling from cosmic expansion. The most remarkable result of the study emerges from the construction of the halo mass function from the sample. At $\sim10^{12}$ $M_\odot$ there is a jog from the expectation Sheth-Tormen function, such that halo counts drop by a factor $\sim 3$ in all lower mass bins.

Low-mass filament galaxies in TNG50 exhibit smaller asymmetric cold gas discs due to cosmic web tidal fields causing altered accretion or starvation and late-time stripping, while integrated stellar and halo properties remain similar to field counterparts after mass and environment controls.
SKA-mid AA4 will enable deep, spatially resolved HI imaging over hundreds of square degrees at column densities down to 10^18 cm^{-2} to study environmental gas processes from isolated galaxies to clusters.
