Overview
In keeping with the interdisciplinary spirit at Kavli IPMU, this symposium aims to cover a broad range of topics including optics in general relativity and other theories of gravity, optical/ Fermat geometry and applications of Finsler geometry in this context, as well as mathematical properties of gravitational lensing and their applications in astrophysics.
