Abstract
Two dimensional disordered systems sustain localized modes that may interact in the presence of a nonlinear optical response. We consider the effect of nonlinearity and nonlocality on the degree of localization and on the mutual interaction of disorder induced localized states. Theoretical results are compared with experiment in disordered optical fibers with a thermal nonlinear and nonlocal response.
