Abstract
We study focal surfaces of (wave) fronts associated to unbounded principal curvatures near nondegenerate singular points of initial fronts. We give characterizations of singularities of those focal surfaces in terms of types of singularities and geometrical properties of initial fronts. Moreover, we investigate behavior of the Gaussian curvature of the focal surface.
