Query: A consistency-test for determining whether ultra-compact dwarf galaxies
  could be the remnant nuclei of threshed galaxies   It has been suggested that ultra-compact dwarf (UCD) galaxies are the
"threshed'" remains of larger galaxies. Simulations have revealed that
extensive tidal-stripping may pare a galaxy back to its tightly-bound, compact
nuclear star cluster. It has therefore been proposed that the two-component
nature of UCD galaxies may reflect the original nuclear star cluster surrounded
by the paltry remnants of its host galaxy. A simple quantitative test of this
theory is devised and applied here. If the mass of the central black hole in
UCD galaxies, relative to the mass of the UCD galaxies' inner stellar
component, i.e. the suspected nuclear star cluster, matches with the (black
hole mass)-(nuclear star cluster mass) relation observed in other galaxies,
then it would provide quantitative support for the stripped galaxy scenario.
Such consistency is found for four of the five UCD galaxies reported to have a
massive black hole. The (black hole mass)-(nuclear star cluster mass) relation
is then used to predict the central black hole mass in two additional UCD
galaxies, and to reveal that NGC 205 and possibly NGC 404 (which only has an
upper limit to its black hole mass) also follow this scaling relation.
