Light bending and gravitational lensing in Brans-Dicke theory

As an important candidate theory of gravity, Brans-Dicke theory has been widely studied. In this paper, we investigate light bending and gravitational lensing by compact objects in Brans-Dicke theory in weak gravitational field. Firstly, we present a general formalism for calculating higher-order co...
