Singular lensing from the scattering on special space–time defects

Abstract It is well known that certain special classes of self-gravitating point-like defects, such as global (non gauged) monopoles, give rise to non-asymptotically flat space–times characterized by solid angle deficits, whose size depends on the details of the underlying microscopic models. The sc...
