"Geometrical Optics and Related Topics" by Ferruccio Colombini, Nicolas Lerner is a mathematics book and learning resource focused on Light & Optics. Best for teachers, students, and readers looking for stronger mathematical understanding.

This volume contains 14 research papers, which cover various topics, including blowup questions for quasilinear equations in 2-D, uniqueness results for systems of conservation laws in 1-D, conservation effects for critical nonlinear wave equations, diffraction of nonlinear waves, propagation of singularities in scattering theory, and caustics for semilinear oscillations. Other topics linked to microlocal analysis which are discussed are Sobolev spaces in Weyl-Hormander calculus, local solvability for pseudodifferential equations, and hypoellipticity for highly degenerate operators. A result for the Cauchy problem under partial analyticity assumptions and an article on the regularity of solutions for the characteristic initial boundary value problem are also included. Most of the papers contain detailed proofs which are accessible to graduate students and active researchers in connected areas
