In this paper we continue the study of Lorentz space estimates for the Ginzburg-Landau energy started in our previous paper, \cite{p1}. We focus on getting estimates for the Ginzburg-Landau energy with external magnetic field $h_{ex}$ in…
We consider the Ginzburg-Landau functional with a variable applied magnetic field in a bounded and smooth two dimensional domain. The applied magnetic field varies smoothly and is allowed to vanish non-degenerately along a curve. Assuming…
We study vortex nucleation for minimizers of a Ginzburg-Landau energy with discontinuous constraint. For applied magnetic fields comparable with the first critical field of vortex nucleation, we determine the limiting vorticities.
