Supermassive black hole demography: the match between the local and accreted mass functions

ABSTRACT We have performed a detailed analysis of the local supermassive black hole (SMBH) mass function based on both kinematic and photometric data and we have derived an accurate analytical fit in the range 106≤MBH/M⊙≤ 5 × 109. We find a total SMBH mass density of (4.2 ± 1.1) × 105 M⊙ Mpc−3, abou...
