Topological charge of superposition of optical vortices described by a geometric sequence

Here, we investigate coaxial superpositions of Gaussian optical vortices that can be described by a geometric sequence. For all superpositions analyzed, a topological charge (TC) is derived. In the initial plane, the TC can be either integer or half-integer, acquiring an integer value upon free-spac...
