Abstract:
Much progress has been made in recent years in our understanding of
the co-evolution of galaxies and supermassive black holes, and their
connection to the underlying large-scale dark matter structure. In
this talk I will discuss simulation and modelling techniques that
bridge theories of galaxy and black hole formation with the properties
of observed galaxy populations. In addition, I will discuss a number
of open questions important for extra-galactic astronomy and
cosmology, and explain how future large-scale surveys and galaxy
formation models may jointly address them.
