An approximate solution to the nonintegrable propagation problem for chirped elliptically polarized waves in an isotropic gyrotropic medium with local and non-local parts of the cubic nonlinear optical response and second order frequency dispersion has been obtained. Conditions for excitation of waves with periodic changes in the polarization state (chirped elliptically polarized cnoidal waves) and implementation of aperiodic propagation regimes similar to polarization 'chaos' have been determined.

Adiabatic approximation is used to find an analytical solution to the nonintegrable propagation problem for a plane elliptically polarized light wave in an isotropic gyrotropic medium with local and nonlocal components of Kerr-type nonlinearity and second-order dispersion of group velocity. Aperiodic consistent dynamics of bound (attributable to the nonlinearity) states of two light field components with orthogonal circular polarizations is described. It is shown that this dynamics corresponds to generalization of consistent propagation of 'soliton-multisoliton complex' pairs to the cases with nonlinear interaction of periodic solutions-cnoidal waves.
