AbstractWe study beam propagation in the framework of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with competing Gaussian nonlocal nonlinearities. We demonstrate that such system can give rise to self-organization of light into stable states of trains or hexagonal arrays of filaments, depending on the transverse dimensionality. This long-range ordering can be achieved by mere unidirectional beam propagation. We discuss the dynamics of long-range ordering and the crucial role which the phase of the wavefunction plays for this phenomenon. Furthermore we discuss how transverse dimensionality affects the order of the phasetransition.
