Аннотация:We address the localization of spatio-temporal wave packets in disordered waveguide arrays whereby temporal localization is mediated by nonlinearity while strong disorder provides Anderson statistical spatial localization. This combination of two different mechanisms allows localization to occur outside the range of parameters where diffraction, dispersion, and self-action have similar strengths, as required for the formation of standard spatio-temporal solitons. Under suitable conditions, nonlinearity is shown to weakly affect the statistically averaged spatial intensity distributions. In contrast, the temporal duration of the localized wave packets strongly depends on the level of disorder.
