Abstract
The light tracks in an anisotropic optical fiber are studied by the op tical metric model. The ordinary and extraordinary light tracks are de termined by solving the null geodesic equation. In the paraxial approx imation the birefringence of the fiber is analyzed. The focusing and d efocusing characteristics of alight beam are described via the geodesi c deviation equation.
