Gravitational lensing and modified Newtonian dynamics [PDF]
Gravitational lensing is most often used as a tool to investigate the distribution of (dark) matter in the universe, but, if the mass distribution is known a priori, it becomes, at least in principle, a powerful probe of gravity itself.

Cosmological Information Contents on the Light-Cone [PDF]
We develop a theoretical framework to describe the cosmological observables on the past light cone such as the luminosity distance, weak lensing, galaxy clustering, and the cosmic microwave background anisotropies.

Lensing by Kerr Black Holes. I: General Lens Equation and Magnification Formula
We develop a unified, analytic framework for gravitational lensing by Kerr black holes. In this first paper we present a new, general lens equation and magnification formula governing lensing by a compact object. Our lens equation assumes that the source

Efficient and Realistic Brain Simulation: A Review and Design Guide for Memristor‐Based Approaches
Memristor‐based emulation of Hodgkin‐Huxley neuron models is investigated, by defining the ideal device characteristics needed for accurate ion‐channel representation and reviewing existing works targeting memristive replication of biological realistic neural behavior.

CMB Polarization Systematics Due to Beam Asymmetry: Impact on Inflationary Science [PDF]
CMB polarization provides a unique window into cosmological inflation; the amplitude of the B-mode polarization from last scattering is uniquely sensitive to the energetics of inflation.

Generalized model-independent characterization of strong gravitational lenses V: reconstructing the lensing distance ratio by supernovae for a general Friedmann universe [PDF]
We determine the cosmic expansion rate from supernovae of type Ia to set up a data-based distance measure that does not make assumptions about the constituents of the universe, i.e.

Applications of the Dressing Field Method are reviewed and further expanded to the very foundations of the supersymmetric framework, where it allows to build relational supersymmetric field theory. Furthermore, a novel approach is proposed giving a unified description of fermionic matter fields and bosonic gauge fields: a Matter‐Interaction ...

Analytical shear and flexion of Einasto dark matter haloes [PDF]
N-body simulations predict that dark matter haloes are described by specific density profiles on both galactic- and cluster-sized scales. Weak gravitational lensing through the measurements of their first and second order properties, shear and flexion ...

Gravitational lensing in modified Newtonian dynamics
Modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND) is an alternative theory of gravity that aims to explain large-scale dynamics without recourse to any form of dark matter.

Gravitational lensing of charged Ayon-Beato-Garcia black holes and non-linear effects of Maxwell fields [PDF]
Non-singular Ayon-Beato-Garcia (ABG) spherically symmetric static black hole (BH) with charge to mass ratio $q$ is metric solution of Born-Infeld nonlinear Maxwell-Einstein theory.
