Abstract: In the present-day universe, the masses of giant black holes correlate with the properties of their host galaxies. This empirical correlation of phenomena on widely different scales suggests that the formation and evolution of galaxies and central black holes are closely linked. I present direct measurements of the correlation between black hole mass and host velocity dispersion of AGN samples at z=0.36 and z=0.57, showing that the relation evolved significantly in the last 6 billion years.
