Low-luminosity AGN exhibit optical variability structure function slopes that increase with black hole mass from ~0.1 to ~0.3, with amplitude anticorrelated with luminosity, no breaks observed, and variability continuing to rise on 20-year timescales.
A criterion of |Δg| > 0.4 mag and |Δ(g-r)| > 0.2 mag detects photometric CL-AGN transitions in 9.6% of known hosts with 1.6% false positive rate from simulations.
HE 1237-2252 exhibits a changing-look event driven by intrinsic accretion-rate variations, revealing a two-component broad-line region consisting of virialized gas at ~27 light-days and disk emission at larger radii.
