The Role of Gravitational Instabilities in the Feeding of Supermassive Black Holes
I review the recent progresses that have been obtained, especially through the use of high-resolution numerical simulations, on the dynamics of self-gravitating accretion discs. A coherent picture is emerging, where the disc dynamics is controlled by a small number of parameters that determine wheth...
