  • Abstract
    We study the coherence properties of a set of incoherent waves propagating in a nonlinear Kerr medium. Specifically we consider their propagation in an optical fiber where the evolution of the corresponding envelopes Aj is described by a set of M coupled nonlinear Schrodinger equations (NLSE).
