内容説明
The original motivation of this study comes from the following questions that were mentioned to one ofus by H. Matano. Let 2 2 G= B = {x=(X1lX2) E 2; x~ + x~ = Ixl < 1}. 1 Consider the Ginzburg-Landau functional 2 2 (1) E~(u) = ~ LIVul + 4~2 L(lu1 _1)2 which is defined for maps u E H1(G;C) also identified with Hl(G;R2). Fix the boundary condition 9(X) =X on 8G and set H; = {u E H1(G;C); u = 9 on 8G}. It is easy to see that (2) is achieved by some u~ that is smooth and satisfies the Euler equation in G, -~u~ = :2 u~(1 _lu~12) (3) { on aGo u~ =9 Themaximum principleeasily implies (see e.g., F. Bethuel, H. Brezisand F. Helein (2]) that any solution u~ of (3) satisfies lu~1 ~ 1 in G. In particular, a subsequence (u~,.) converges in the w* - LOO(G) topology to a limit u*.

内容説明
The mathematics in this book apply directly to classical problems in superconductors, superfluids and liquid crystals. It should be of interest to mathematicians, physicists and engineers working on modern materials research. The text is concerned with the study in two dimensions of stationary solutions uE of a complex valued Ginzburg-Landau equation involving a small parameter E. Such problems are related to questions occuring in physics, such as phase transistion phenomena in superconductors and superfluids. The parameter E has a dimension of a length, which is usually small. Thus, it should be of interest to study the asymptotics as E tends to zero. One of the main results asserts that the limit u* of minimizers uE exists. Moreover, u* is smooth except at a finite number of points called defects or vortices in physics. The number of these defects is exactly the Brouwer degree - or winding number - of the boundary condition. Each singularity has degree one - or, as physicists would say, vortices are quantized. The singularities have infinite energy, but after removing the core energy we are led to a concept of finite renormalized energy.
The location of the singularities is completely determined by minimizing the renormalized energy among all possible configurations of defects. The limit u* can also be viewed as a geometrical object. It is a minimizing harmonic map into S1 with prescribed boundary condition g. Topological obstructions imply that every map u into S1 with u=g on the boundary must have infinite energy. Even though u* has infinite energy one can think of u* as having "less" infinite energy than any other map u with u=g on the boundary. The material presented in this book covers mostly recent and original results by the authors. It assumes a moderate knowledge of nonlinear functional analysis, partial differential equations and complex functions. It is designed for researchers and graduate students alike and can be used as a one-semester text.
