  • Introduction This work presents an original approach to the study of the formation and evolution of elliptical galaxies in a cosmological context.

    The first section of this introduction is concerned with the motivation for the present work. The second section lists the theoretical issues that are encountered when analyzing the problem. A short description of the chosen approach is then presented. Finally, the overview section provides the reader with a bird's view of the organization and contents of the work itself.
