22 Summary In spite of remarkable recent progress, many fundamental questions in the formation and evolution of cosmic structure remain only partially answered:! how and when was the Universe reheated? We know that some galaxies and QSOs where already shining when the Universe was <10 9 yr old.! but when did the first luminous structure form and how bright were they? We believe there is a strong coupling between the thermodynamic state of the IGM and the process of galaxy formation.! but what `feedback mechanisms are at work in this interaction? The effect of the heat input from the first generation of sources on later ones remains an open question! what is the precise location and degree of metal enrichment of most of the baryons in the Universe?! what is the link between SMBHs and galaxy formaiion? And did the first MBHs form in subgalactic units far up in the merger hierarchy, well before the bulk of the stars observed today?
