Simulation of Mode Selectability Characteristics by Phase Constraint in a Bare Coordinate-Transforming Cavity

We show that the coordinate-transformed mode, which is the transformation from a Gaussian profile to a uniform circular one, is selected through iteration of round trips in a bare cavity, using Fox-Li simulation. When the phase constraint due to cavity mirrors is dominant, the intensity profiles converge to the desired profiles.
