The highest resolution simulations find $\gamma \simeq -0. 8$ for the $z=0$ shape of $p(\ln M_{\star,\rm BCG}\,|\, M_{\rm halo}, z)$ and also that the fractional scatter in total stellar mass is below $10\%$ in halos more massive than $10^{14. 3} M_{\odot}$.

In recent years, machine learning (ML) methods have remarkably improved how cosmologists can interpret data.

We show that the weak-lensing shear catalog, redMaGiC galaxy catalogs and redMaPPer cluster catalogs provide plausible realizations of the same catalogs in the DES Y1 data by comparing their magnitude, color and redshift distributions, angular clustering, and mass-observable relations, making them useful for testing analyses that use these samples.
