We theoretically study light propagation in the two-dimensional arrays of mutually weak coupled waveguides. We study the properties of the discrete diffraction and demonstrate the existence of discrete spatial solitons in such arrays.

Anderson location is an important wave phenomenon when the system contains disorder. Anderson location of light is a significant topic in optical science. Arrays of evanescently coupled waveguides made of nonlinear materials are the fundamental model of discrete nonlinear optics. Guided propagation of light in such arrays emulates electronic wave functions in fundamental periodic and disordered potentials of solid state physics. In this work, the Anderson location effect in a two-dimensional waveguide matrix is studied, and the influence of the nonlinearity on the localized effect induced by the disorder of the system is considered.
