Angular correlation as a novel probe of supermassive primordial black holes

We investigate the clustering property of primordial black holes (PBHs) in a scenario where PBHs can explain the existence of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) at high redshifts. We analyze the angular correlation function of PBHs originating from fluctuations of a spectator field which can be regarded as a representative model to explain SMBHs without conflicting with the constraint from the spectral distortion of cosmic microwave background. We argue that the clustering property of PBHs can give a critical test for models with PBHs as the origin of SMBHs and indeed show that the spatial distribution of PBHs in such a scenario is highly clustered, which suggests that those models may be disfavored from observations of SMBHs although a careful comparison with observational data would be necessary.
