Can we observe galaxies that recede faster than light ? —A more clear-cut answer

On the Large-Scale Structure of the Universe as given by the Voronoi Diagrams

“…Another Monte Carlo study was carried out by van de Weygaert & Babul (1994) where three different distributions of nuclei were adopted in order to perform extensive statistical analysis of several geometrical aspects of three dimensional Voronoi tessellation. A new way of partitioning the space into cells characterised by the shape of rhombic dodecahedron has been introduced in Kiang (2003) ; the application is done to the CfA catalogue and to the IRAS/PSCz catalogue Kiang et al (2004). The void hierarchy approach has been introduced in Sheth & van de Weygaert (2004) and it explains how large-scale structures are function of two parameters, one of which reflects the dynamics of void formation, and the other the formation of collapsed objects.…”
