Episodic activity of quasars is driving growth of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) via accretion of baryon gas. In this Letter, we develop a simple method to analyse the duty cycle of quasars up to redshift $zsim 6$ universe from luminosity functions (LFs). We find that the duty cycle below redshift $zsim 2$ follows the cosmic history of star formation rate (SFR) density. Beyond $zsim 2$, the evolutionary trends of the duty cycle are just opposite to that of the cosmic SFR density history, implying the role of feedback from black hole activity. With the duty cycle, we get the net lifetime of quasars ($zle 5$) about $sim 10^9$yrs. Based on the local SMBHs, the mean mass of SMBHs is obtained at any redshifts and their seeds are of $10^5sunm$ at the reionization epoch ($z_{rm re}$) of the universe through the conservation of the black hole number density in comoving frame. We find that primordial black holes ($sim 10^3sunm$) are able to grow up to the seeds via a moderate super-Eddington accretion of $sim 30$ times of the critical rate from $z=24$ to $z_{rm re}$. Highly super-Eddington accretion onto the primordials is not necessary.
The tight relationship between the masses of black holes and galaxy spheroids in nearby galaxies implies a causal connection between the growth of these two components. Optically luminous quasars host the most prodigious accreting black holes in the
We discuss the central role played by X-ray studies to reconstruct the past history of formation and evolution of supermassive Black Holes (BHs), and the role they played in shaping the properties of their host galaxies. We shortly review the progres
Growth of massive black holes (MBHs) in galactic centers comes mainly from gas accretion during their QSO/AGN phases. In this paper we apply an extended Soltan argument, connecting the local MBH mass function with the time-integral of the QSO luminos
Recent simulations of merging black holes with spin give recoil velocities from gravitational radiation up to several thousand km/s. A recoiling supermassive black hole can retain the inner part of its accretion disk, providing fuel for a continuing
We addressed the so far unexplored issue of outflows induced by exponentially growing power sources, focusing on early supermassive black holes (BHs). We assumed that these objects grow to $10^9;M_{odot}$ by z=6 by Eddington-limited accretion and con
