Cluster lenses: a cosmological tool


I will discuss the use of cluster lenses as cosmological tool. In particularly, I will show how one can measure the mass distribution in cluster of galaxies, how we can use them as natural telescope to probe the distant Universe, and how we hope to constrain the cosmological parameters using well constrained cluster lenses.
