Second-harmonic generation , chaos

After an overview of the main papers devoted to chaos in lasers (Section I.A) and in nonlinear optical processes (Section I.B), we present a more detailed analysis of dynamics in a process of second-harmonic generation of light (Section II) as well as in Kerr oscillators (Section III). The last case we consider particularly in the context of coupled nonlinear systems. Finally, we present a cumulant approach to the problem of quantum corrections to the classical dynamics in second-harmonic generation and Kerr processes (Section IV).
