because concave mirror converges the light rays which cause excess heat
BUT , CONVEX MIRROR DIVERGES THE LIGHT
AND CANNOT POINT ON ANY ONE DIRECTION THATS WHY IT PRODUCES LESS HEAT. IT IS LOW TO BURN A PAPER.

Concave mirror converges the light rays to a single direction which cause excess heat but in case of convex mirror the light rays falling on it gets diverged and thus cannot point on any one direction. Thus it produces less heat. So convex mirrors cannot burn paper like concave mirrors.
