lambda_0 and Omega_0 from Lensing Statistics and Other Methods: Is There a Conflict?

Abstract

This was a contribution to the gravitational lens conference in Boston which discusses whether or not constraints on cosmological parameters from lens statistics are in conflict with those from other methods. It is partially a discussion about caveats one needs to keep in mind when comparing cosmological constraints from the literature, and partially a summary of results presented in Paper I, Paper II and Paper III. Data used to make the plots in these papers (and the poster) can be found here.
