Motivated by (i) more and more interest in strong gravitational lensing by supermassive black holes due to the achievement of EHT observations, (ii) the ongoing popular topic on the possibility of Lorentz symmetry being broken in gravitation and its consequences, we will apply the Einstein bumblebee gravity with Lorentz violation (LV) to the study of strong gravitational lensing effect and the black hole shadow of slowly rotating Kerr-like black hole. In the strong gravitational lensing sector, we first calculate the deflection angel; then treating the slowly rotating Kerr-like black hole as supermassive M87* black hole, we evaluate the gravitational lensing observables (position, separation and magnification) and the time delays between the relativistic images. In the black hole shadow sector, we show the effect of LV parameter on the luminosity of the black hole shadow and photon sphere using the infalling spherical accretion. Moreover, we explore the dependence of various shadow observables on the LV parameter, and then give the possible constraint on the LV parameter by M87* black hole of EHT observations. We find that the LV parameter show significant effect on the strong gravitational lensing effect, the black hole shadow and photon sphere luminosity by accretion material. Our results point out that the future generations of EHT observation may help to distinguish the Einstein bumblebee gravity from GR, and also give a possible constrain on the LV parameter.

  1. Signatures of Lorentz violation in bright ring for Sgr A* images by radiation ineffective accretion flows

    astro-ph.HE 2026-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    For a rotating Lorentz-violating black hole, increasing the LV parameter shrinks and broadens Sgr A*'s image ring, and EHT data bound the parameter over a spin-dependent range.

  2. Optical Characteristics of the Kerr-Bertotti-Robinson Black Hole

    gr-qc 2025-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    For the Kerr-Bertotti-Robinson black hole, the magnetic field mainly enlarges the shadow and Einstein ring while rotation mainly distorts the shadow shape, and current M87* and Sgr A* data give only weak bounds on the field.

  3. Shadow of the generalized Vaidya black hole

    gr-qc 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    For self-similar Husain black holes, the barotropic index α controls the shadow: α<1/2 enlarges it, α>1/2 shrinks it, with a quasistatic influx criterion for the time-dependent case.

  4. Probing Lorentz-violating effects via precession and accretion disk images of a rotating bumblebee black hole

    gr-qc 2026-04 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Lorentz violation in a rotating bumblebee black hole suppresses Lense-Thirring precession, increases periastron precession, shrinks the inner shadow, and enhances the lensed ring while leaving the critical curve nearl...

  5. Boson Stars in Bumblebee Gravity and Their Gravitational Waveforms from Extreme-Mass-Ratio Inspirals

    gr-qc 2025-12 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    In bumblebee gravity, the Lorentz-violating parameter ℓ makes mini-boson stars more compact for positive ℓ and produces LISA-detectable, sustained EMRI waveforms for penetrating orbits.

  6. Exact Black Hole Solutions in Bumblebee Gravity with Lightlike or Spacelike VEVS

    gr-qc 2025-10 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    New exact Schwarzschild-like, (A)dS-like, and charged black holes in bumblebee gravity with a two-component vector VEV keep Lorentz-violating corrections even when the VEV is lightlike, with Wald and first-law entropi...

  7. Strong gravitational lensing by black hole in F(R) Euler Heisenberg Gravity's Rainbow

    astro-ph.GA 2025-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Applying the strong deflection limit to the F(R)-Euler-Heisenberg-Rainbow black hole gives lensing observables that increase with the Euler-Heisenberg parameter and decrease with charge.
