Evolution of the cosmic stellar mass density for all (black), star-forming (blue), and quiescent (red) galaxies. The shaded areas show the corresponding systematic uncertainties that are due to the SF/Q selection. The open stars represent the measurement that we obtain by assuming a single-Schechter function to fit the star-forming galaxies. Measurements of Tomczak et al. (2014, squares), Ilbert et al. (2013, circles), and Arnouts et al. (2007, quiescent only, red crosses) are shown for comparison. The filled and open red circles represent the quiescent measurements of Ilbert et al. (2013), using a selection of quiescent galaxies based on the NUV-r/r-J plan and the sSFR respectively. The quiescent measurement of Arnouts et al. (2007) is based on the K-band luminosity density, and the selection uses the SED-fitting. For the sake of clarity, the star-forming or quiescent measurements are plotted with of shift of +0.03 or /0.03 Gyr.
