报告摘要: The relativistic jets in Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are the most energetic phe-nomena in the Universe, and believed to be powered by the accretion onto the centralsupermassive black holes (SMBH). To better understand the formation of AGN jets, the keyis to directly resolve the innermost jet regions close to the central black hole. The high-resolution VLBI observations that achieve milliarcsecond scale are the unique way to dothat. To this end, we monitored the nearby radio galaxy M87 with the East AsianVLBI Network (EAVN) from 2016 to May 2020. Thanks to its proximity and central supermassive black hole, it offers us a chance to connect the BH- and milli-arcsecond scales, especially after the first ever BH image captured by the Event Horizon Telescope in 2017. In this report, I will introduce the results obatined from our EAVN observations and the related discussions.
