Phenomenon of coupled tapering/uptapring of two mutually incoherent beams coaxially co-propagating in a nonlinear medium with small gain or loss has been investigated in this paper using standard parabolic equation approach (PEA) and the results are compared with the results obtained by Beam Propagation Method (BPM), i.e., by direct simulations of the underlying Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation (NLSE). The PEA results are shown to be in excellent agreement with the BPM results. It is seen that both beams of the pair induce uptapering in each other in presence of losses and tapering in presence of gain. When the medium offers gain to the first beam and losses to the other, both beams taper. When the medium offers gain/absorption to only one of the two beams, the beam undergoes self-tapering/self-uptapering and induces a taperd/uptaperd waveguide. The other beam (for which the medium is lossless) uptapers/tapers due to the taperd/uptaperd waveguide created by the first beam.
