High-resolution MUSE observations of 30 Gaia multipeak targets confirm 19 AGN multiplets including 6 dual AGN, accounting for 22% of known close pairs below 7 kpc and showing the selection method's efficiency.
JWST data on two z~7.3 quasars yields a quasar-galaxy correlation length of 7.6 h^{-1} cMpc, a minimum halo mass of 10^{11.6} solar masses, and a duty cycle of 0.05%.
Spatially resolved SED fitting shows AGN contributes 34% of nuclear IR luminosity in GN20 but only 9% galaxy-wide, with the black hole on the local M_BH-M_bulge relation.
Little red dots are the dust-reddened, high-inclination counterparts of little blue dots under a super-Eddington unification model, with luminosity-dependent fractions peaking near 20% and obscured systems showing systematically higher black hole masses due to selection.
Outliers from the black hole-stellar mass scaling relation arise from distinct channels of enhanced mergers with super-Eddington growth, gravitational recoils after mergers, environmental stellar mass loss, and quiescent histories.

Little red dots as obscured little blue dots: relative abundances, luminosities, and black-hole masses
Little red dots are the dust-reddened, high-inclination counterparts of little blue dots under a super-Eddington unification model, with luminosity-dependent fractions peaking near 20% and obscured systems showing systematically higher black hole masses due to selection.

Overmassive and Undermassive Massive Black Holes: The Role of Environment and Gravitational-Wave Recoils
Outliers from the black hole-stellar mass scaling relation arise from distinct channels of enhanced mergers with super-Eddington growth, gravitational recoils after mergers, environmental stellar mass loss, and quiescent histories.
