Abstract

Model equations for a ring class B laser operating in three Gauss-Laguerre modes are derived and studied. Bifurcation mechanisms leading to the appearance of low-frequency antiphase oscillations of mode intensities are investigated. The spontaneous phase symmetry breaking effect leading to transverse patterns with rotating crystal generated by four optical vortices is described.
