Ring Interferometry.

This monograph is devoted to the creation of a comprehensive formalism for quantitative description of polarized modes' linear interaction in modern single-mode optic fibers. The theory of random connectionbetween polarized modes, developed in the monograph, allows calculations of the zero shif...
