In the current picture of cosmology and astrophysics, the formation and evolution of galaxies is closely linked to that of their dark matter haloes. The best representation of this galaxy-dark matter halo co-evolution is the M* - Mhalo relation. In this study we investigate how the radio-mode feedback from active galactic nuclei (AGN) affects the M* - Mhalo relation at redshifts 0.08 < z < 1.53. We use a set of 111 radio-selected AGN at 3 GHz VLA-COSMOS within the X-ray galaxy groups in the COSMOS field. We compare these results to the ones of 171 star-forming galaxies (SFGs), using the theoretical relation of Moster et al. (2013). We find that AGN agree within 1% with the Moster et al. (2013) relation, SFGs show an offset of 37%, suggesting that the radio-mode feedback from AGN at a median redshift of ~ 0.5 still plays a significant role in the M* - Mhalo relation.
