Abstract: | By means of a numerical experiment, an investigation was carried out of the characteristics for generating optical structures in a Fizeau interferometer with Kerr nonlinearity under the effect of combined large-scale transformation of the optical field in the feedback profile by: shifting the interferometer mirror, rotation of the optical field, and compression (expansion) of the laser beam. New types of structures are predicted. From the scale of these listed effects it is established that the combined effect of all three factors is not limited to the sum of their effects. An explanation for the specific structure formations is proposed. Analogs to these rules can be found in the results of actual experiments.Tomsk State University.
