✦ Synopsis

A robust numerical method for the localization of caustics is proposed for general Hamiltonians. It is based on the direct resolution of a system of partial differential equations obtained through a local change of the time variable in the Hamilton-Jacobi equation and complemented by a set of transport equations. Numerical results (1-to 3-D) are presented.
