By means of the \(r\)-band luminosity function (LF) of galaxies in a sample of about 4000 clusters detected by the cluster finder AMICO in the KiDS-DR3 area of about 400 deg\(^2\), we studied the evolution with richness and redshift of the passive evolving (red), star-forming (blue), and total galax...
