[For the entire collection see Zbl 0726.00014.] The author investigates the dynamics of a pair of laser pulses counterpropagating as travelling waves through a nonlinear polarizable medium. He proves that the geometry of this system is remarkable and that it reduces, for isotropic media, to motion on the sphere, due to continuous Hamiltonian symmetries of the system. Then, using this result he describes the phase portrait of the system by determining the fixed points and infinite-periodic homoclinic and heteroclinic orbits. Finally, the Melnikov method is used to analytically show the occurrence of either horseshoe chaos or Arnold diffusion.
