Query: Full characterization of the transmission properties of a multi-plane
  light converter   Multi-plane light conversion allows to perform arbitrary transformations on a
finite set of spatial modes with no theoretical restriction to the quality of
the transformation. Even though the number of shaped modes is in general small,
the number of modes transmitted by a multi-plane light converter (MPLC) is
extremely large. In this work, we aim to characterize the transmission
properties of a multi-plane light converter inside and, for the first time,
outside the design-modes subspace. By numerically reconstructing the
transmission matrix of such systems, we individuate new ways to evaluate their
efficiency in performing the design transformation. Moreover, we develop an
analytical random matrix model that suggests that in the regime of a large
number of shaped modes an MPLC behaves like a random scattering medium with
limited number of controlled channels.
