Weak and strong deflection gravitational lensing by a renormalization group improved Schwarzschild black hole

Abstract Weak and strong deflection gravitational lensing by a renormalization group improved Schwarzschild black hole is investigated and its observables are found. By taking the supermassive black holes Sgr A* and M87* respectively in the Galactic Center and at the center of M87 as lenses, we esti...
