Résumé - Abstract

One knows after Maslov, Arnold, etc... how to associate to almost every germ of lagrangian or legendrian manifold a class of oscillatory functions which, under generic hypotheses à la Thom, yield universal models for the behaviour of a light wave near the caustic.

This article extends this construction to a class of situations where the characteristic variety is a singular germ (a union of smooth components), which can still be stable in the sense that the (legendrian) characteristic variety admits only trivial (legendrian) deformations.
