Abstract

Description

We highlight some results from disk galaxy evolution models conceived within a cosmological context. When disk mergers and strong disk-halo feedback are omitted, several properties and correlations of disk galaxies seem to be related to initial conditions given by the CDM model, for example, the intensive galaxy properties, the disk Hubble sequence, and the Tully-Fisher relation in the infrared bands.
