Query: GRAVITATIONAL LENSING EFFECT ON COSMIC MICROWAVE BACKGROUND
  ANISOTROPIES: A POWER SPECTRUM APPROACH   The effect of gravitational lensing on cosmic microwave background (CMB)
anisotropies is investigated using the power spectrum approach. The lensing
effect can be calculated in any cosmological model by specifying the evolution
of gravitational potential. Previous work on this subject is generalized to a
non-flat universe and to a nonlinear evolution regime. Gravitational lensing
cannot change the gross distribution of CMB anisotropies, but it may
redistribute the power and smooth the sharp features in the CMB power spectrum.
The magnitude of this effect is estimated using observational constraints on
the power spectrum of gravitational potential from galaxy and cluster surveys
and also using the limits on correlated ellipticities in distant galaxies. For
realistic CMB power spectra the effect on CMB multipole moments is less then a
few percent on degree angular scales, but gradually increases towards smaller
scales. On arcminute angular scales the acoustic oscillation peaks may be
partially or completely smoothed out because of the gravitational lensing.
