The paper reviews dust production, destruction and growth processes in galaxies, compiles literature data on comoving dust mass density, presents evidence for and against interstellar dust growth, and identifies the high-redshift dust budget as needing further study.

abstract
Pressure-regulated star formation is a simple variant on the usual supernova-regulated star formation efficiency that controls the global star formation rate as a function of cold gas content in star-forming galaxies, and accounts for the Schmidt-Kennicutt law in both nearby and distant galaxies. Inclusion of AGN-induced pressure, by jets and/or winds that flow back onto a gas-rich disk, can lead under some circumstances to significantly enhanced star formation rates, especially at high redshift and most likely followed by the more widely accepted phase of star formation quenching. Simple expressions are derived that relate supermassive black hole growth, star formation and outflow rates. The ratios of black hole to spheroid mass and of both black hole accretion and outflow rates to star formation rate are predicted as a function of time. I suggest various tests of the AGN-triggered star formation hypothesis.

Surveys divide AGN into radiative-mode (accreting black holes in star-forming galaxies) and jet-mode (feedback-dominated in massive ellipticals) populations that together explain the co-evolution of galaxies and supermassive black holes.
