title: Equivalence of three approaches describing partially incoherent wave propagation in inertial nonlinear media.
abstract: We show that three approaches previously developed to describe partially incoherent wave propagation in inertial nonlinear media are in fact equivalent. This equivalence is formally established through the evolution of the mutual coherence function and by means of Karhunen-Loeve expansions.
