Abstract
A theoretical model of evolution of light and CNO-elements in a cluster of galaxies explaining the observations of the elements in galaxies of various types and ages and intergalactic medium is proposed. Numerical simulations take into account stellar ejection and matter exchange between galaxies and intergalactic medium with different forms of galactic ejection and accretion functions. Enrichment of intergalactic medium by heavy elements due to galactic ejection driven by supernova activity. A possibility for galactic metallicity to have inhomogeneous behaviour at redshifts z ~ 1 is shown, that is mainly due to accretion onto a galaxy at the latest evolutionary stage.
