We study the clustering dependence of X-ray AGN and normal galaxies on the
stellar mass (M$_star$), star-formation rate (SFR) and specific star-formation
rate (sSFR) of the (host) galaxy. Towards this end, we use 407 X-ray AGN from
the XMM-XXL survey ($sim$ 25 deg$^2$ in the North) and $sim45,000$ galaxies
in the VIPERS field (W1: $sim$16 deg$^2$). We match the AGN and galaxy samples
to have the same M$_star$, SFR and redshift distributions. Based on our
results, the two populations live in DMHs with similar mass ($log M /
(M_{odot} , h^{-1})approx 12.8$) and have similar dependence on the galaxy
properties. Specifically, our measurements show a positive dependence of the
AGN and galaxy clustering on M$_star$ and a negative dependence on SFR and
sSFR. We also find that the X-ray clustering is independent of the location of
the host galaxy above or below the star-forming main sequence.
