Abstract
We investigate the strong gravitational lensing phenomena caused by a black hole with a dark matter halo. In this study, we examine strong gravitational lensing with two significant dark matter models: the universal rotation curve model and the cold dark matter model. To do this, we first numerically estimate the strong lensing coefficients and strong deflection angles for both the universal rotation curve and cold dark matter models. It is observed that the deflection angle, denoted as , increases with the parameter while holding the value of constant. Additionally, it increases with the parameter while keeping the value of constant. The strong deflection angle, , for the black hole with a dark matter halo, with parameters and , greatly enhances the gravitational bending effect and surpasses the corresponding case of the standard Schwarzschild black hole (). Furthermore, we investigate the astrophysical consequences through strong gravitational lensing observations, using examples of various supermassive black holes such as and located at the centers of several galaxies. It is observed that black holes with dark matter halos can be quantitatively distinguished and characterized from the standard Schwarzschild black hole (). The findings in our analysis suggest that observational tests for black holes influenced by dark matter halos are indeed feasible and viable.
