Projected number density profiles of faint galaxies around the 1st ranked (black) and 2nd ranked galaxy (grey) for different subsamples of CGs. Faint galaxies are defined within a volume limited sample with −17 ≤ M_r − 5log (h) ≤ −13.8 and z_cm< 0.03. Top panels: CGs with bright/faint 1st ranked galaxies. Bottom panels: CGs dominated/non-dominated by a single bright galaxy. Error bars are the standard deviations computed with 100 bootstraps.
