Abstract

Results of theoretical consideration of polarization dynamics both with steady states and their stability in a single mode laser with stimulated anisotropy in a saturable are proposed. Examples of coexistence of stable steady states with two linear orthogonal polarizations are given. Dynamical regimes with different types of limit cycles with linear and elliptical polarization are demonstrated.
