Transformations of ray transferences of optical systems to augmented Hamiltonian matrices and the problem of the average system

The first-order optical nature of an optical system (including an eye) is completely characterized by a 55 ×  matrix called the ray transference.  It is known  that the image of a ray transference by the matrix logarithm function is an augmented Hamiltonian matrix.  It turns out that there are other...
