My Optics text shows how the light rays reflecting off a spherical mirror appear to have been emitted from a single point, hence producing a well-formed image. The text then says that this is true "for any mirror whose curvature is gentle enough and that is symmetric with respect to rotation about the perpendicular line passing through its center". I was wondering if anyone had a proof for this statement.
