    Abstract

    We present analytical stability criteria for the fundamental solitons of two coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations. The derived stability criteria are applied to the coupled fundamental soliton states in isotropic nonlinear media, in birefringent fibres and in nonlinear couplers. The predictions from the analytical stability criteria are consistent with numerical results.
