We also assume the equivalent system to be monoenergetic in the
space between the aprture plane z A and the image plane z I . It
follows that p A = p I ≡ p. From (2.256, 2.257, 2.258, 2.259)

Applying the property of delta function, we first define a function
f (a, b) = dx dy δ[ u(x, y) − a ] δ[ v(x, y) − b ].

In order to evaluate this, we must transform from the set (x, y) to
the set (u, v). This involves the Jacobian determinant,
