Abstract
A large class of electromagnetic beams (including Gaussian beams and l aser sheets) complies with symmetry relations that are then mathematic ally expressed in the framework of the generalized Lorenz-Mie theory ( GLMT). In particular, by using such symmetry relations in evaluating t he beam-shape coefficients, one can efficiently speed up GLMT computat ions.
