+
+**Canonical BibTeX key:** `Roche2026`
+**Reference:** Host Dependence and Line-of-Sight Effects on Galaxy-Galaxy Strong Lensing in Clusters; arXiv:2608.30079
+**Concepts:** [[cluster-lensing]], [[line-of-sight-effects]]
+
+**Supports:**
+- Revisits the observed-vs-simulated galaxy–galaxy strong-lensing excess in clusters: correlated LOS material raises P_GGSL by a few to ~15%, hydro runs give up to 10x more GGSL than DM-only, P_GGSL scales roughly as θ_E^2, and the residual tension depends on the field-of-view definition.

+- Proposes a lens-model-free, data-driven "geometrical-duality" test (the optical Liouville theorem applied across scales) for sub-resolution substructure, applied to 11 multiply imaged star clusters in SMACS0723 with JWST; one outlier pair is consistent with CDM subhaloes of 10^8–10^9 M_sun.

+- Argues analytically that generalized shape degeneracies, not the mass-sheet or source-position transformation, drive <30 kpc differences between cluster mass maps; they are suppressed near tight image groupings and shift time delays by ~1% (up to ~10% for some sources) in MACS J0416.
