V. Ambartsumian (1956) has shown that the observable quantity of double and multiple galaxies much exceeds that expected, based on the assumption about dissociative balance. He has concluded that the members of double and multiple systems, as well as the clusters, could not arise independently of each other, and only then to be united in systems, by mutual capture. They should arise in common. Moreover, when in a group are large luminous central galaxies, the origin of the weak members of the group should be caused by activity of a nucleus of the central galaxy (Ambartsumian 1962). On the other hand, recently, there was widespread the opinion that the properties of central galaxies of groups and clusters are caused by interactions with environmental galaxies.
