Abstract
Based on the newly-developed coherent-entangled state representation we propose the so-called Fresnel–Hadamard complementary transformation, which is unitary. The new unitary operator plays the role of both Fresnel transformation for and Hadamard transformation for
respectively. Physically,
and
could be a symmetric beamsplitter's two output fields. We show that the two transformations are concisely expressed in the coherent-entangled state representation as a projective operator in integration form.
