Abstract: The characterization of the galaxy clustering properties in the universe is one of the most interesting and controversial issues in modern cosmology. Here we present the results of the analysis of the recently available three-dimensional catalogues of galaxies, performed with the tools of modern statistical analysis. We focus on the problem of determination of crossover scale to homogeneity in the distribution of luminous matter.
