Jacobian determinant and magnification Jacobian determinant Magnification
10
Magnification map on the lens plane θxθx θyθy To get magnification map on the source plane:
11
Linear expression Inverse matrix, : infinitesimally small
12
Calculation of image position : initial point on the source plane exactly traced from a point on the lensing plane : a target point on the source plane close to : first approximation of the image position corresponding to : second approximation of the image position corresponding to Iteration

Iteration example
15
Problems in and This method only finds an image close to. To find other images, we must try other. If steps over caustic, calculation become divergent. So we need to select other.
16
Summary Analytic form of Jacobian matrix is derived for general multiple lens system Using Jacobian determinant, magnification on the lens plane can be calculated Approximate image position can be calculated from a close reference source point which is exactly traced from lens plane Calculation to get image position converges in 3-5 times iteration Although there are problems to get reference point, this method may be useful for future multiple lens analyses
