Caustics of wave fronts reflected by a surface

One can often see caustic by reflection in nature but it is rather hard to understand the way of how caustic arise and which geometric properties of a mirror surface define geometry of the caustic. The caustic by reflection has complicated topology and much more complicated geometry. From engineerin...
