Abstract
We discuss the link between the observations of distant quasars and those of massive dark objects in the cores of many local galaxies. We show how the formation of early black holes gives rise to the luminosity function of high z quasars, while it imprints into their dark local relics a related shape of the mass-dispersion correlation. We propose that in its lower section the correlation slope will tell the (otherwise uncertain) strenght of the feedback effect from the quasar radiation on the host galaxies.
