Abstract
We use the results of N-body simulations on gravitational clustering in CDM models with both Gaussian and non-Gaussian initial conditions to generate projected galaxy catalogues with the same selection criteria as the Shane-Wirtanen counts of galaxies. We apply the technique for measuring 2D topology (the EP characteristic) discussed in the previous papers of this series to compare the statistical nature of the projected galaxy clustering in these simulated data sets with that of the observed galaxy catalogue. We find that all our models produce a topology dominated by a meatball shift when normalized to the known small-scale clustering properties of galaxies
