Nodal-line dynamics via exact polynomial solutions for coherent waves traversing aberrated imaging systems

Abstract

We obtain exact polynomial solutions for two-dimensional coherent complex scalar fields propagating through arbitrary aberrated shift-invariant linear imaging systems. These are used to model nodal-line dynamics of coherent fields output by such systems.
