Abstract

Method proposed by Maslov has been used, to remedy the problem of geometrical optics, for a two dimensional Perfect electromagnetic conductor (PEMC) Gregorian system. It generates an integral form of solution near the caustic that can be evaluated analytically/numerically, or withuniform asymptotic techniques. Away from the caustic it recovers the geometrical optics field. Numerical computations are made to calculate the field around the caustic of a Gregorian system.
