Abstract
We construct a general theory of adiabatic propagation of spinor exciton-polaritons in waveguides of arbitrary shape, accounting for the effects of TE-TM splitting in linear polarizations and Zeeman splitting in circular polarizations. The developed theory is applied for the description of waveguides of periodically curved shape. We show that in this geometry the periodic rotation of the effective in-plane magnetic field produced by TE-TM interaction results in a nontrivial band-gap structure, which can be additionally tuned by application of an external magnetic field. It is also demonstrated, that spin-dependent interactions between polaritons lead to the formation of stable gap solitons.
