Redshift evolution of rest-frame J-band galaxy effective radius (Re,J; left) and dust-extinction-corrected absolute magnitude (MJ; right). In each redshift bin, symbols denote the median Re,J or MJ, with green circles, blue triangles, and red squares corresponding to increasing stellar mass. The black error bar in the bottom-left corner indicates the average 1σ scatter of the distributions across the redshift bins. The error bars on the data points represent the uncertainties of the medians, which are smaller than or comparable to the symbol size. The best-fit relations from Equation (7) for Re,J and Equation (6) for MJ are overplotted with the corresponding parameters listed in the legend.
