IMAGES DISTRIBUTION OF BINARY SYMMETRICAL GRAVITATIONAL LENS
In this paper, we study the distribu- tion of images from a point source in N - point gravi- tational lenses. It is well known that in a Schwarzschild lens (N = 1) from a point source, there are always two images.

Gravitational lensing shear by an exotic lens object with negative convergence or negative mass [PDF]
Gravitational lens models with negative convergence (surface mass density projected onto the lens plane) inspired by modified gravity theories, exotic matter and energy have been recently discussed in such a way that a static and spherically-symmetric ...

QUASI-ANALYTICAL METHOD FOR IMAGES CONSTRUCTION FROM GRAVITATIONAL LENSES
One of the main problems in the study of system of equations of the gravitational lens, is the computation of coordinates from the known position of the source. In the process of computing finds the solution of equations with two unknowns. The problem is

DISSECTING THE GRAVITATIONAL LENS B1608+656. II. PRECISION MEASUREMENTS OF THE HUBBLE CONSTANT, SPATIAL CURVATURE, AND THE DARK ENERGY EQUATION OF STATE [PDF]
Strong gravitational lens systems with measured time delays between the multiple images provide a method for measuring the “time-delay distance” to the lens, and thus the Hubble constant.

Lensing Magnification Seen by Gravitational Wave Detectors
In this paper, we studied the gravitational lensing of gravitational wave events. The probability that an observed gravitational wave source has been (de-)amplified by a given amount is a detector-dependent quantity which depends on different ingredients:

Auto-detection of strong gravitational lenses using convolutional neural networks
We propose a method for the automated detection of strong galaxy-galaxy gravitational lenses in images, utilising a convolutional neural network (CNN) trained on 210 000 simulated galaxy-galaxy lens and non-lens images.

Exploring Quantum Geometry Created by Quantum Matter
Exactly soluble models can serve as excellent tools to explore conceptual issues in non-perturbative quantum gravity. In perturbative approaches, it is only the two radiative modes of the linearized gravitational field that are quantized.

DISSECTING THE GRAVITATIONAL LENS B1608+656. I. LENS POTENTIAL RECONSTRUCTION [PDF]
Strong gravitational lensing is a powerful technique for probing galaxy mass distributions and for measuring cosmological parameters. Lens systems with extended source-intensity distributions are particularly useful for this purpose since they provide ...
