The Convergence of Heavy and Light Seeds to Overmassive Black Holes at Cosmic Dawn

The James Webb Space Telescope has revealed low-luminosity active galactic nuclei at redshifts of z ≳ 4–7, many of which host accreting massive black holes (BHs) with BH-to-galaxy mass ( M _BH / M _⋆ ) ratios exceeding the local values by more than an order of magnitude. The origin of these overmass...
