Abstract
We study, numerically and analytically, linear and nonlinear waveguides ind uced by optical vortex solitons in a Kerr medium. Both fundamental and firs t-order guided modes are analyzed, as well as cases of effective defocusing and focusing nonlinearity. (C) 2000 Optical Society of America.
