In this article, I review some of these relations for inactive galaxies and discuss the findings for galaxies that host an active galactic nucleus/quasar. I present the results of our group that finds that active galaxies at $z\\lesssim 0.1$ do not follow the BH mass - bulge luminosity relation. Furthermore, I show near-infrared integral-field spectroscopic data that suggest that young stellar populations cause the bulge overluminosity and indicate that the host galaxy growth started first. Finally, I discuss implications for the BH-host coevolution.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-11-23T16:39:33.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "active galaxies", "correlations", "central stellar velocity dispersion", "host galaxy growth started first", "bulge luminosity relation" ], "tags": [ "conference paper", "dissertation" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 8, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
