AbstractThe shadow of a Kerr-like black hole has been considered and it was shown that in addition to the specific angular momentum a, deformation parameter of Kerr-like space-time essentially deforms the shape of the black hole shadow. For a given value of the black hole spin parameter a, the presence of a deformation parameter ε reduces the shadow and enlarges its deformation with respect to the one in the Kerr space-time.


This paper eliminates the last remaining lacuna in the information that was needed to make the solution for the perturbations in the metric coefficients of the Kerr space-time fully explicit. The requisite information is obtained from a pair of equations which is complementary to the one considered in paper III; and the solution of the Newman-Penrose equations governing the perturbations is, thus, completed.

ABSTRACT We provide new very simple and compact expressions for the efficient calculation of gravitational lens optical scalars for Kerr space–time, which are exact along any null geodesic. These new results are obtained recurring to well-known results on geodesic motion that exploit obvious and hidden symmetries of Kerr space–time and contrast with the rather long and cumbersome expressions previously reported in the literature, providing a helpful improvement for the sake of an efficient integration of the geodesic deviation equation on Kerr geometry. We also introduce a prescription for the observer frame that captures a new notion of centre of the black hole, which can be used for any position of the observer, including those near the black hole. We compare the efficient calculation of weak lens optical scalars with the exact equations, finding an excellent agreement.
