Abstract: The majority of galaxies in the Universe are known to form and evolve in filamentary large-scale structures, namely the Cosmic Web. In the early epochs, the Cosmic Web hosts a plethora of galaxies, massive black holes, and gas flows, especially at the web nodes. Yet it remains a mystery how environments as such have shaped the very early phase of galaxy formation.
