Abstract
We present a theoretical study of multiple bistability in an optical-fiber double-ring resonator. The multiple bistability is caused by the optical Kerr effect, which modulates the refractive index of the fiber. The dependence of the multiple bistability on various parameters of the fibers and the couplers is investigated
