Abstract

We analyze possible differences in the global environments of very metal-poor BCGs with that of typical metallicity BCGs, basing on the parameter DNN – distance to the nearest “luminous” galaxy. We find very significant difference suggesting that a higher fraction of unevolved dwarfs reside in ‘voids’.
