In cosmological N-body simulations, the baryon effects on the cold dark matter (CDM) halos can be used to solve the small scale problems in $Lambda$CDM cosmology, such as cusp-core problem and missing satellites problem. It turns out that the resultant total density profiles (baryons plus CDM), for halos with mass ranges from dwarf galaxies to galaxy clusters, can match the observations of the rotation curves better than NFW profile. In our previous work, however, we found that such density profiles fail to match the most recent strong gravitational lensing observations. In this paper, we do the converse: we fit the most recent strong lensing observations with the predicted lensing probabilities based on the so-called $(alpha,beta,gamma)$ double power-law profile, and use the best-fit parameters ($alpha=3.04, beta=1.39, gamma=1.88$) to calculate the rotation curves. We find that, at outer parts for a typical galaxy, the rotation curve calculated with our fitted density profile is much lower than observations and those based on simulations, including the NFW profile. This again verifies and strengthen the conclusions in our previous works: in $Lambda$CDM paradigm, it is difficult to reconcile the contradictions between the observations for rotation curves and strong gravitational lensing.

We study the evolutionary trend of the total density profile of early-type galaxies (ETGs) in IllustrisTNG. To this end, we trace ETGs from $z=0$ to $z=4$ and measure the power-law slope $gamma^{prime}$ of the total density profile for their main pro
genitors. We find that their $gamma^{prime}$ steepen on average during $zsim4-2$, then becoming shallower until $z=1$, after which they remain almost constant, aside from a residual trend of becoming shallower towards $z=0$. We also compare to a statistical sample of ETGs at different redshifts, selected based on their luminosity profiles and stellar masses. Due to different selection effects, the average slopes of the statistical samples follow a modified evolutionary trend. They monotonically decrease since $z=3$, and after $zapprox 1$, they remain nearly invariant with a mild increase towards $z=0$. These evolutionary trends are mass-dependent for both samples, with low-mass galaxies having in general steeper slopes than their more massive counterparts. Galaxies that transitioned to ETGs more recently have steeper mean slopes as they tend to be smaller and more compact at any given redshift. By analyzing the impact of mergers and AGN feedback on the progenitors evolution, we conjecture a multi-phase path leading to isothermality in ETGs: dissipation associated with rapid wet mergers tends to steepen $gamma^{prime}$ from $z=4$ to $z=2$, whereas subsequent AGN feedback (especially in the kinetic mode) makes $gamma^{prime}$ shallower again from $z=2$ to $z=1$. Afterwards, passive evolution from $z=1$ to $z=0$, mainly through gas-poor mergers, mildly decreases $gamma^{prime}$ and maintains the overall mass distribution close to isothermal.
Simulations are expected to be the powerful tool to investigate the baryon effects on dark matter (DM) halos. Recent high resolution, cosmological hydrodynamic simulations (citealt{Cintio14}, DC14) predict that the inner density profiles of DM halos
depend systematically on the ratio of stellar to DM mass ($M_{ast}/M_{rm halo}$) which is thought to be able to provide good fits to the observed rotation curves of galaxies. The DC14 profile is fitted from the simulations which are confined to $M_{rm halo}le 10^{12}M_{sun}$, in order to investigate the physical processes that may affect all halos, we extrapolate it to much larger halo mass, including that of galaxy clusters. The inner slope of DC14 profile is flat for low halo mass, it approaches 1 when the halo mass increases towards $10^{12}M_{sun}$ and decreases rapidly after that mass. We use DC14 profile for lenses and find that it predicts too few lenses compared with the most recent strong lensing observations SQLS (citealt{Inada12}). We also calculate the strong lensing probabilities for a simulated density profile which continues the halo mass from the mass end of DC14 ($sim 10^{12}M_{sun}$) to the mass that covers the galaxy clusters (citealt{Schaller15}, Schaller15), and find that this Schaller15 model predict too many lenses compared with other models and SQLS observations. Interestingly, Schaller15 profile has no core, however, like DC14, the rotation curves of the simulated halos are in excellent agreement with observational data. Furthermore, we show that the standard two-population model SIS+NFW cannot match the most recent SQLS observations for large image separations.
We present a detailed strong lensing (SL) mass reconstruction of the core of the galaxy cluster MACSJ 2129.4-0741 ($rm z_{cl}=0.589$) obtained by combining high-resolution HST photometry from the CLASH survey with new spectroscopic observations from
the CLASH-VLT survey. A background bright red passive galaxy at $rm z_{sp}=1.36$, sextuply lensed in the cluster core, has four radial lensed images located over the three central cluster members. Further 19 background lensed galaxies are spectroscopically confirmed by our VLT survey, including 3 additional multiple systems. A total of 31 multiple images are used in the lensing analysis. This allows us to trace with high precision the total mass profile of the cluster in its very inner region ($rm R<100$ kpc). Our final lensing mass model reproduces the multiple images systems identified in the cluster core with high accuracy of $0.4$. This translates to an high precision mass reconstruction of MACS 2129, which is constrained at level of 2%. The cluster has Einstein parameter $Theta_E=(29pm4)$, and a projected total mass of $rm M_{tot}(<Theta_E)=(1.35pm0.03)times 10^{14}M_{odot}$ within such radius. Together with the cluster mass profile, we provide here also the complete spectroscopic dataset for the cluster members and lensed images measured with VLT/VIMOS within the CLASH-VLT survey.
We use the statistics of strong gravitational lenses to investigate whether mass profiles with a flat density core are supported. The probability for lensing by halos modeled by a nonsingular truncated isothermal sphere (NTIS) with image separations
greater than a certain value (ranging from zero to ten arcseconds) is calculated. NTIS is an analytical model for the postcollapse equilibrium structure of virialized objects derived by Shapiro, Iliev & Raga. This profile has a soft core and matches quite well with the mass profiles of dark matter-dominated dwarf galaxies deduced from their observed rotation curves. It also agrees well with the NFW (Navarro-Frenk-White) profile at all radii outside of a few NTIS core radii. Unfortunately, comparing the results with those for singular lensing halos (NFW and SIS+NFW) and strong lensing observations, the probabilities for lensing by NTIS halos are far too low. As this result is valid for any other nonsingular density profiles (with a large core radius), we conclude that nonsingular density profiles (with a large core radius) for CDM halos are ruled out by statistics of strong gravitational lenses.
We present a parametric strong lensing modeling of the galaxy cluster MS,0440.5+0204 (located at $z$ = 0.19). We have performed a strong lensing mass reconstruction of the cluster using three different models. The first model uses the image positions
of four multiple imaged systems (providing 26 constraints). The second one combines strong lensing constraints with dynamical information (velocity dispersion) of the cluster. The third one uses the mass calculated from weak lensing as an additional constraint. Our three models reproduce equally well the image positions of the arcs, with a root-mean-square image equal to $approx$0.5$arcsec$. However, in the third model, the inclusion of the velocity dispersion and the weak-lensing mass allows us to obtain better constraints in the scale radius and the line-of-sight velocity dispersion of the mass profile. For this model, we obtain $r_s$ = 132$^{+30}_{-32}$ kpc, $sigma_s$ = 1203$^{+46}_{-47}$ km s$^{-1}$, M$_{200}$ = 3.1$^{+0.6}_{-0.6}$ $times10^{14}$,M$_{odot}$, and a high concentration, $c_{200}$ = 9.9$^{+2.2}_{-1.4}$. Finally, we used our derived mass profile to calculate the mass up to 1.5 Mpc. We compare it with X-ray estimates previously reported, finding a good agreement.
