We consider vortices in the nonlocal two-dimensional Gross-Pitaevskii equation with the interaction potential having the Lorentz-shaped dependence on the relative momentum. It is shown that in the Fourier series expansion with respect to…
We show that, in a two-dimensional (2d) ideal fluid (also applies to a column of quasi-2d non-neutral plasma in an axial magnetic field), large elliptical vortices in a finite disk are stable. The stability is established by comparison…
For the 2D incompressible Euler equations, we establish global-in-time ($t \in \mathbb{R}$) stability of vortex quadrupoles satisfying odd symmetry with respect to both axes. Specifically, if the vorticity restricted to a quadrant is…
This paper concerns the investigation of the stability properties of relative equilibria which are rigidly rotating vortex configurations sometimes called vortex crystals, in the N-vortex problem. Such a configurations can be characterized…

We study the stability of the vortex in a 2D model of continuous compressible media in a uniformly rotating reference frame. As it is known, the axisymmetric vortex in a fixed reference frame is stable with respect to asymmetric…

We derive the Bogomol'nyi equations in generalized Abelian Higgs theories which allow the coexistence of vortices and antivortices over a compact Riemann surface or the full plane. In the compact surface situation, we obtain a necessary and…
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.
Topological vortices in relativistic gauge theories in flat three-dimensional spacetime are investigated. We consider the symmetry $\rm{U(1)}\times...\times \rm{U(1)}$, and for each $\rm{U(1)}$ subgroup, a complex scalar field transforming…
Within the non-linear Ginzburg-Landau (GL) theory, we investigate the vortex structure in a superconducting thin film with a ferromagnetic disk on top of it. Antivortices are stabilized in shells around a central core of vortices (or a…
We construct local minimizers to the Ginzburg-Landau functional of superconductivity whose number of vortices N is prescribed and blows up as the parameter epsilon, inverse of the Ginzburg-Landau parameter kappa, tends to zero. We treat the…
A class of axisymmetric vortex solutions superposed upon radial stagnation flows is described. The new vortex solutions generalize the classical Burgers' vortex and Sullivan's vortex solutions in the presence of a volumetric line source at…
We prove homological stability for both general linear groups of modules over a ring with finite stable rank and unitary groups of quadratic modules over a ring with finite unitary stable rank. In particular, we do not assume the modules…
We verify that for all $n \geq 3$ and $2 \leq k \leq n+1$, the standard $k$-bubble clusters, conjectured to be minimizing total perimeter in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $\mathbb{S}^n$ and $\mathbb{H}^n$, are stable -- an infinitesimal regular…
Stability of a half-quantum vortex (HQV) in superfluid $^3$He has been discussed recently by Kawakami, Tsutsumi and Machida in Phys. Rev. B {\bf 79}, 092506 (2009). We further extend this work here and consider the A$_2$ phase of superfluid…
