It looks like a lot of the usual transmission matrices are projectors onto some basis element (either linear or circular polarization) which means that they should commute since each unique projector is in the null space of each other one. So if the reflection matrices are similar you could have a ...

If L commutes with A then setting B=-A gives another solution. Is there a good reference for these reflection matrices? A lot of stuff seems older and paywalled.

Great thread, reminds me of a guy on twitter who used to read a different physics arXiv paper every day and tweet out a little capsule summary.

I can't do something like gradient-descent because "build" and "doesn't build" are the only options, right? I'm a total scrub when it comes to applications, but you sure can apply gradient descent to a binary classifier if you model it as logistic regression. Just googling "...
