The Asymptotic Theory of Ginzburg--Landau Critical Points on Domains with Corners
Abstract
We study the critical points Uε of the two-dimensional Ginzburg--Landau energy on domains with corners Ω and imposed Dirichlet boundary condition which vanishes precisely at the vertices V. We isolate the forced scalar boundary layer ρε by the weighted Lassoued--Mironescu splitting. Assuming the reduced logarithmic energy bound and vertex logarithmic tightness, we prove that after passing to a subsequence, the normalized maps vε = Uε/ρε converges in Ckloc(Ω∖ A) ∀ k≥0 away from a finite set of interior vortices A. The limiting map is a canonical S1-valued harmonic map u* containing integer interior vortex factors and fixed fractional corner factors. The renormalized energy is defined by removing discs around the interior vortices and sectors around the vertices and subtracting the corresponding logarithmic divergences. The interior vortex locations of the limiting map are critical points of this renormalized energy.

AB - We study the critical points U_ε of the two-dimensional Ginzburg--Landau energy on domains with corners Ω and imposed Dirichlet boundary condition which vanishes precisely at the vertices V. We isolate the forced scalar boundary layer ρ_ε by the weighted Lassoued--Mironescu splitting. Assuming the reduced logarithmic energy bound and vertex logarithmic tightness, we prove that after passing to a subsequence, the normalized maps v_ε = U_ε/ρ_ε converges in C^k_loc(Ω∖ A) ∀ k≥0 away from a finite set of interior vortices A. The limiting map is a canonical S^1-valued harmonic map u_* containing integer interior vortex factors and fixed fractional corner factors. The renormalized energy is defined by removing discs around the interior vortices and sectors around the vertices and subtracting the corresponding logarithmic divergences. The interior vortex locations of the limiting map are critical points of this renormalized energy.
