Abstract
Equivalence theorems for combinations of circular amplitude and phase anisotropy and for linear amplitude and phase anisotropy (with special orientations) have been formulated. It has been shown that the order of product of Jones matrices can be changed for following couples of anisotropy types: linear amplitude and circular phase; circular amplitude and phase, linear amplitude and phase (with special orientations). We show that the values of anisotropy in above combinations are the invariant of permutation, at that, only orientations are changed but defined. Matrices of linear amplitude and general phase anisotropy can be represented by any order of their following for special conditions on their orientations, which has been derived.
