Description
Minkowski functionals are set of descriptors used to describe the morphological structures of a field. CMB weak lensing, a powerful probe which imprinting projective information of matter distribution in the universe all the way back to the last scattering surface. With Minkowski functionals, one can reveal much more statistical features in the CMB lensing observations and eventually tighter the constrain of cosmological parameters. In this talk, I will introduce the Minkowski functionals method, and discuss it application to CMB lensing analyzes in both numerical and analytical aspects.
