Existence and non-existence results for minimizers of the Ginzburg–Landau energy with prescribed degrees
Existence and non-existence results for minimizers of the Ginzburg–Landau energy with prescribed degrees
Let [Formula: see text] be a smooth annular type domain. We consider the simplified Ginzburg–Landau energy [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text], and look for minimizers of [Formula: see text] with prescribed degrees [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] on the boundaries of the domain. For large [Formula: see …
