In gravitational lensing, the usual viewpoint is that light bending measures how a ray deviates from a straight line in Euclidean space. In this work, we take the opposite perspective: we ask how a straight line bends in a curved space,…

It is known that the rotation of a gravitational lens affects properties of images. We consider an inverse problem: If the lens is dark, can we infer its rotation from the observed images? We find that, up to the first order in the…

The geodesic structure of the Teo wormhole is briefly discussed and some observables are derived that promise to be of use in detecting a rotating traversable wormhole indirectly, if it does exist. We also deduce the exact Lense-Thirring…
