We complete our study of the three dimensional Ginzburg--Landau functional with magnetic field, in the asymptotic regime of a small inverse Ginzburg--Landau parameter $\varepsilon$, and near the first critical field $H_{c_1}$ for which the…
In this paper, we consider the concentration property of solutions to the dispersive Ginzburg-Landau (or Gross-Pitaevskii) equation in three dimensions. On a spatial domain, it has long been conjectured that such a solution concentrates…
We study the variational convergence of a family of two-dimensional Ginzburg-Landau functionals arising in the study of superfluidity or thin-film superconductivity, as the Ginzburg-Landau parameter epsilon tends to 0. In this regime and…
In this paper we consider the asymptotic behavior of the Ginzburg- Landau model for superconductivity in 3-d, in various energy regimes. We rigorously derive, through an analysis via {\Gamma}-convergence, a reduced model for the vortex…

Klein, Majda, and Damodaran have previously developed a formalized asymptotic motion law describing the evolution of nearly parallel vortex filaments within the framework of the three-dimensional Euler equations for incompressible fluids.…
On a two-dimensional Riemannian manifold without boundary we consider the variational limit of a family of functionals given by the sum of two terms: a Ginzburg-Landau and a perimeter term. Our scaling allows low-energy states to be…
We consider the following coupled Ginzburg-Landau system in ${\mathbb R}^3$ \begin{align*} \begin{cases} -\epsilon^2 \Delta w^+ +\Big[A_+\big(|w^+|^2-{t^+}^2\big)+B\big(|w^-|^2-{t^-}^2\big)\Big]w^+=0, \\[3mm] -\epsilon^2 \Delta w^-…
We prove that, on a planar regular domain, suitably scaled functionals of Ginzburg-Landau type, given by the sum of quadratic fractional Sobolev seminorms and a penalization term vanishing on the unitary sphere, $\Gamma$-converge to…
For each given $n\geq 2$, we construct a family of entire solutions $u_\varepsilon (z,t)$, $\varepsilon>0$, with helical symmetry to the 3-dimensional complex-valued Ginzburg-Landau equation \begin{equation*}\nonumber \Delta u+(1-|u|^2)u=0,…
Geophysical research has focused on flows, such as ocean currents, as two dimensional. Two dimensional point or blob vortex models have the advantage of having a Hamiltonian, whereas 3D vortex filament or tube systems do not necessarily…
We study a variational model which combines features of the Ginzburg-Landau model in 2D and of the Mumford-Shah functional. As in the classical Ginzburg-Landau theory, a prescribed number of point vortices appear in the small energy regime;…
We consider the full three-dimensional Ginzburg-Landau model of superconductivity with applied magnetic field, in the regime where the intensity of the applied field is close to the "first critical field" $H_{c_1}$ at which vortex filaments…
This paper is devoted to an analysis of vortex-nucleation for a Ginzburg-Landau functional with discontinuous constraint. This functional has been proposed as a model for vortex-pinning, and usually accounts for the energy resulting from…
The dynamics of curved vortex filaments is studied analytically and numerically in the framework of a three-dimensional complex Ginzburg-Landau equation (CGLE). It is proved that a straight vortex line is unstable with respect to…
We study a variational Ginzburg-Landau type model depending on a small parameter $\varepsilon>0$ for (tangent) vector fields on a $2$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $S$. As $\varepsilon\to 0$, these vector fields tend to have unit length…
Nearly parallel vortex filaments are a generalization of point vortices and describe many phenomena under conservation of angular momentum including vortices forming in deep ocean convection, magnetically confined plasmas, and the solar…
Since the Ginzburg-Landau theory is concerned with macroscopic phenomena, and gravity affects how objects interact at the macroscopic level. It becomes relevant to study the Ginzburg-Landau theory in curved space, that is, in the presence…
In a convex domain $\O\subset\R^3$, we consider the minimization of a 3D-Ginzburg-Landau type energy $E_\v(u)=1/2\int_\O|\n u|^2+\frac{1}{2\v^2}(a^2-|u|^2)^2$ with a discontinuous pinning term $a$ among $H^1(\O,\C)$-maps subject to a…
