The invention provides an optical processor for performing algebraic operations, which is characterized in that it consists of several groups of principal input transducers 2, 3, 4 which perform wavelength multiplexing lambda 1, lambda 2, lambda n and are allocated to each bit of the binary expression for each number to be multiplied, each of which principal input transducers represents a principal operative circuit, said processor also consisting of several groups of principal output transducers 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 which perform wavelength demultiplexing following operative processing, said principal input and output transducers being interconnected on the operative circuits via a multi-track spatial light modulator 5, in accordance with the operating points 25 situated in zones of modifiable optical characteristics under the effect of electrical commands generated from the numbers to be multiplied. The invention is of interest to the manufacturers of calculators and optical multiplexers. <IMAGE>
