Minimization of energy functionals is based on a discretization by the finite element method and optimization by the trust-region method. A key tool is a local evaluation of the approximated gradients together with sparsity of the resulting…
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 Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation for the dynamics of a magnetic vortex system. We present a PDE-based method for proving vortex dynamics that does not rely on strong well-preparedness of the initial data and allows for…
We extend the results of previous work on the vortex order parameter in systems similar to the Ginzburg-Landau description of superfluid $^3$He in the bulk B phase. Specifically, we consider vortices preserving an axial $U(1)$ symmetry. We…
We consider the problem of finding the minimum of inhomogeneous Gaussian lattice sums: Given a lattice $L \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ and a positive constant $\alpha$, the goal is to find the minimizers of $\sum_{x \in L} e^{-\alpha \|x -…
