Empirical studies of the Large–Scale Structure in the nearby Universe come in two complementary modes, namely the investigation of either the distribution of luminous matter or voids: (i) The description of the galaxy and cluster distribution employs correlation functions, clustering analysis, topological methods, et cetera. (ii) The investigation of the empty regions between systems of galaxies uses void probability functions, mean diameters of voids, the compilation of void catalogues, and so forth.
