Add to ORKGRadiative transfer theory, wave optics and paraxial optics including Fourier optics can be treated uniformly and without any approximation in terms of generalized pencils of rays. This development is reviewed and the role of the groups SL(2,R), Sp(4,R) for paraxial propagation elaborated. The problem of polarization is studied with special care and correctly treated where explicit use of the Poincare group is made. Higher order correlations are taken up within the generalized pencil formalism, the differences between quantum and classical wave optics are highlighted. The effects of Bose quantization on ray-ray correlations is calculated and displayed
