Abstract

In this letter we will investigate the possibility whether primordial black holes can grow to become galactic black holes or not. We find that even a primordial black hole with the probable maximum mass cannot grow in a short timescale. Only a hole with the initial mass of order $\sim10^4M_{\odot}$ can significantly grow to become a galactic hole.
