Topological charge of optical vortices and their superpositions

An optical vortex passed through an arbitrary aperture (with the vortex center found within the aperture) or shifted from the optical axis of an arbitrary axisymmetric carrier beam is shown to conserve the integer topological charge (TC). If the beam contains a finite number of off-axis optical vort...
