Demonstration of the evolution of the mean ﹩{M}_{{\rm{UV}}}﹩–﹩{M}_{\star }﹩ relation with redshift (if mass to light ratios were allowed to continue decreasing above z > 8) in comparison to the mass-to-light ratio limit imposed by the stellar population modeling with BEAGLE (which implicitly assumes a Chabrier IMF with a high-mass cutoff of 100 ﹩{M}_{\odot }﹩). In our model, all z > 8 galaxies follow the ﹩{M}_{{\rm{UV}}}﹩–﹩{M}_{\star }﹩ relation at z = 8 to avoid a scenario where significant numbers of galaxies exceed the theoretical mass-to-light ratio limit set by BEAGLE.
