A regular planar curve is a curve without singular points. We will regard it as a (one-dimensional) wave front, and consider the family of parallel curves as a time evolution of the given curve. The most common type of singularity that one sees in these parallel curves is what is called a cusp singularity. More so than with the case of surfaces, the planar curves, whether described via equations or described geometrically, are remarkably accessible objects—and because of this, this chapter in particular is essentially self-contained upon reading.
