Abstract: | The polarization state of a second-harmonic wave after reflection from a semi-infinite, optically isotropic magnetic medium
is considered for the three characteristic uniformmagnetization directions corresponding to the linear magneto-optical Kerr
effects. Expressions for the complex amplitudes of the wave field which specify the nonlinear Kerr effects, viz., the polar,
meridional, and equatorial effects, are obtained in a first approximation with respect to the magnetization. The dependences
of these effects on the angle of incidence of the inducing wave obtained as a result of a numerical experiment are presented.
Analytical formulas are found for them at small angles of incidence. A comparative analysis of the linear and nonlinear Kerr
effects is made.
