• Galaxy: fundamental parameters
• Galaxy: large scale structure

Using two volume-limited Main galaxy samples of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 10 (SDSS DR10), we investigate K-band luminosity dependence of galaxy clustering by cluster analysis. It is found that low-luminosity galaxies are preferentially isolated or form close pairs and small groups at all scales, whereas high-luminosity galaxies preferentially inhabit dense groups and clusters.
