HIERARCHICAL MODEL. “In this model, BHs evolve from light seeds (∼100 M⊙) and their growth is merger driven. The original Somerville et al. model (baseline model) reproduces the number density of AGN at intermediate redshifts and luminosities, but underproduces luminous AGN at very high redshift (z > 3) and overproduces them at low redshift (z < 1).” (BH = black hole; AGN = active galactic nuclei).
