Abstract
We investigate the propagation characteristics of Cauchy–Riemann beams in gradient-index media. Our study reveals two key findings: first, the preservation of their form during propagation; and second, the surprising feasibility of obtaining the two-dimensional fractional Fourier transform for any arbitrary entire function. We elucidate an explicit and straightforward expression for this transform. Additionally, our results contribute to a deeper understanding of the behavior of Cauchy–Riemann beams in inhomogeneous media, offering insights that may have implications for various applications in optics and wave propagation.
