Abstract: We present new specific analytic solutions of a system of nonlinear Schrödinger equations, corresponding to elliptically polarised cnoidal waves in an isotropic gyrotropic medium with spatial dispersion of cubic nonlinearity and second-order frequency dispersion under the conditions of formation of the waveguides of the same type for each of the circularly polarised components of the light field.

Keywords: cubic nonlinearity, spatial dispersion, nonlinear Schrödinger equations, elliptic polarisation, cnoidal waves.
