A lack of evolution in the very bright-end of the galaxy luminosity function from z = 8-10.

We utilize deep near-infrared survey data from the UltraVISTA fourth data release (DR4) and the VIDEO survey, in combination with overlapping optical and Spitzer data, to search for bright star-forming galaxies at $z \gtrsim 7.5$. Using a full photometric redshift fitting analysis applied to the $\sim 6\,{\rm deg}^2$ of imaging searched, we find 27 Lyman-break galaxies (LBGs), including 20 new sources, with best-fitting photometric redshifts in the range $7.5 5$ data over a wide range in absolute UV magnitude ($-23 < M_{\rm UV} < -17$). We postulate that the observed evolution can be explained by a lack of mass quenching at very high redshifts in combination with increasing dust obscuration within the first $\sim 1 \,{\rm Gyr}$ of galaxy evolution.
