Continuing work initiated in an earlier publication [Ishihara, Suzuki, Ono, Kitamura, Asada, Phys. Rev. D {bf 94}, 084015 (2016) ], we discuss a method of calculating the bending angle of light in a static, spherically symmetric and asymptotically flat spacetime, especially by taking account of the finite distance from a lens object to a light source and a receiver. For this purpose, we use the Gauss-Bonnet theorem to define the bending angle of light, such that the definition can be valid also in the strong deflection limit. Finally, this method is applied to Schwarzschild spacetime in order to discuss also possible observational implications. The proposed corrections for Sgr A$^{ast}$ for instance are able to amount to $sim 10^{-5}$ arcseconds for some parameter range, which may be within the capability of near-future astronomy, while also the correction for the Sun in the weak field limit is $sim 10^{-5}$ arcseconds.

By using the Gauss-Bonnet theorem, the bending angle of light in a static, spherically symmetric and asymptotically flat spacetime has been recently discussed, especially by taking account of the finite distance from a lens object to a light source a
nd a receiver [Ishihara, Suzuki, Ono, Asada, Phys. Rev. D 95, 044017 (2017)]. We discuss a possible extension of the method of calculating the bending angle of light to stationary, axisymmetric and asymptotically flat spacetimes. For this purpose, we consider the light rays on the equatorial plane in the axisymmetric spacetime. We introduce a spatial metric to define the bending angle of light in the finite-distance situation. We show that the proposed bending angle of light is coordinate-invariant by using the Gauss-Bonnet theorem. The non-vanishing geodesic curvature of the photon orbit with the spatial metric is caused in gravitomagnetism, even though the light ray in the four-dimensional spacetime follows the null geodesic. Finally, we consider Kerr spacetime as an example in order to examine how the bending angle of light is computed by the present method. The finite-distance correction to the gravitomagnetic deflection angle due to the Suns spin is around a pico-arcsecond level. The finite-distance corrections for Sgr A$^{ast}$ also are estimated to be very small. Therefore, the gravitomagnetic finite-distance corrections for these objects are unlikely to be observed with present technology.
We discuss a possible extension of calculations of the bending angle of light in a static, spherically symmetric and asymptotically flat spacetime to a non-asymptotically flat case. We examine a relation between the bending angle of light and the Gau
ss-Bonnet theorem by using the optical metric. A correspondence between the deflection angle of light and the surface integral of the Gaussian curvature may allow us to take account of the finite distance from a lens object to a light source and a receiver. Using this relation, we propose a method for calculating the bending angle of light for such cases. Finally, this method is applied to two examples of the non-asymptotically flat spacetimes to suggest finite-distance corrections: Kottler (Schwarzschild-de Sitter) solution to the Einstein equation and an exact solution in Weyl conformal gravity.
In order to clarify effects of the finite distance from a lens object to a light source and a receiver, the gravitational deflection of light has been recently reexamined by using the Gauss-Bonnet (GB) theorem in differential geometry [Ishihara et al
. 2016]. The purpose of the present paper is to give a short review of a series of works initiated by the above paper. First, we provide the definition of the gravitational deflection angle of light for the finite-distance source and receiver in a static, spherically symmetric and asymptotically flat spacetime. We discuss the geometrical invariance of the definition by using the GB theorem. The present definition is used to discuss finite-distance effects on the light deflection in Schwarzschild spacetime, for both cases of the weak deflection and strong deflection. Next, we extend the definition to stationary and axisymmetric spacetimes. We compute finite-distance effects on the deflection angle of light for Kerr black holes and rotating Teo wormholes. Our results are consistent with the previous works if we take the infinite-distance limit. We briefly mention also the finite-distance effects on the light deflection by Sagittarius A$^*$.
Two exact lens equations have been recently shown to be equivalent to each other, being consistent with the gravitational deflection angle of light from a source to an observer, both of which can be within a finite distance from a lens object [Phys.
Rev. D 102, 064060 (2020)]. We examine methods for iterative solutions of the gravitational lens equations in the strong deflection limit. It has been so far unclear whether a convergent series expansion can be provided by the gravitational lens approach based on the geometrical optics for obtaining approximate solutions in the strong deflection limit in terms of a small offset angle. By using the ratio of the lens mass to the lens distance, we discuss a slightly different method for iterative solutions and the behavior of the convergence. Finite distance effects begin at the third order in the iterative method. The iterative solutions in the strong deflection limit are estimated for Sgr $A^{*}$ and M87. These results suggest that only the linear order solution can be relevant with current observations, while the finite distance effects at the third order may be negligible in the Schwarzschild lens model for these astronomical objects.
By using a method improved with a generalized optical metric, the deflection of light for an observer and source at finite distance from a lens object in a stationary, axisymmetric and asymptotically flat spacetime has been recently discussed [Ono, I
shihara, Asada, Phys. Rev. D 96, 104037 (2017)]. By using this method, in the weak field approximation, we study the deflection angle of light for an observer and source at finite distance from a rotating Teo wormhole, especially by taking account of the contribution from the geodesic curvature of the light ray in a space associated with the generalized optical metric. Our result of the deflection angle of light is compared with a recent work on the same wormhole but limited within the asymptotic source and observer [Jusufi, Ovgun, Phys. Rev. D 97, 024042, (2018)], in which they employ another approach proposed by Werner with using the Nazims osculating Riemannian construction method via the Randers-Finsler metric. We show that the two different methods give the same result in the asymptotic limit. We obtain also the corrections to the deflection angle due to the finite distance from the rotating wormhole.
