الوصف: Deterministic control of coherent random light is highly important for information transmission through complex media. However, only a few simple speckle transformations can be achieved through diffusers without prior characterization. As recently shown, spiral wavefront modulation of the impinging beam allows permuting intensity maxima and intrinsic $\pm 1$-charged optical vortices. Here, we study this cyclic-group algebra when combining spiral phase transforms of charge $n$, with $D_3$- and $D_4$-point-group symmetry star-like amplitude modulations. This combination allows statistical strengthening of permutations and controlling the period to be 3 and 4, respectively. Phase saddle-points are shown to complete the cycle. These results offer new tools to manipulate critical points in speckles.
