Automated classification of supernovae (SNe) based on optical photometric light curve information is essential in the upcoming era of wide-field time domain surveys, such as the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) conducted by the Rubin…

Lensed supernovae (SNae) are among the most eagerly anticipated transients expected from the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST). Quadruply lensed SNae permit more highly constrained models than "mere" doubles. The quadruply lensed SN…
