Abstract
Localized structures of light in optical cavities - cavity solitons - have attracted significant attention in recent years. This is largely due to some striking experimental observations [1-4] and the variety of complex and interesting nonlinear phenomena involved in their stability [5,6], interaction [7-10] and control [2,3,5,11]. The last aspect also gives some hope for potential application of these structures for optical processing of information.
