[12] By lossless beam splitters we refer to any device whose action on N input waves can be described by a N_N unitary matrix U relating input and output complex amplitudes Ej (U)= k=1 N Uj,kEk so that the output waves carry the same total intensity as the input waves j=1 N _Ej(U)_2= k=1 N _Ek_2. For N=2 this includes standard lossless beam splitting in basic twobeam interferometers. [13] J. W. Goodman, Statistical Optics (Wiley, New York, 1985). [14] M. J. Bastiaans, J. Opt. Soc. Am.
