How does the galaxies move in the universe?

The general tendency is for galaxies to move away from one another - the further apart they are, the faster they move away from one another. In other words, the Universe is expanding.

What is the correlation function?

A random galaxy is used in the "Correlation function" [See Link] to describe the possibilities of another galaxy being found within a certain distance.Given a random galaxy in a location, the correlation function describes the probability that another galaxy will be found within a given distance.See related for types of galaxies.
