Generation of universal linear optics by any beam splitter
In 1994, Reck et al. showed how to realize any unitary transformation on a single photon using a product of beam splitters and phase shifters. Here we show that any single beam splitter that nontrivially mixes two modes also densely generates the set of unitary transformations (or orthogonal transfo...
