| Description: |
A monograph that develops a mathematical theory of gravitational lensing. It presents historical highlights and the astrophysical aspects of the subject. It employs the ideas and results of singularity theory to put gravitational lensing on a rigorous mathematical foundation. |
| Synopsis: |
This monograph is the first to develop a mathematical theory of gravitational lensing. The theory applies to any finite number of deflector planes and highlights the distinctions between single and multiple plane lensing. Introductory material in Parts I and II present historical highlights and the astrophysical aspects of the subject. Part III employs the ideas and results of singularity theory to put gravitational lensing on a rigorous mathematical foundation. |
