Abstract:
The gravitational lensing effect is one of the most promising tools for
cosmology. Indeed it probes directly the total
mass distribution in large-scale structures and can
as well provide valuable informations on
the values of the density parameter $\Omega$ and
the cosmological constant $\lambda$. In this review we summarize the
most spectacular observational and theoretical advances obtained
in this field during the last five years.
