From the Ginzburg-Landau Model to Vortex Lattice Problems

From the Ginzburg-Landau Model to Vortex Lattice Problems We introduce a “Coulombian renormalized energy” W which is a logarithmic type of interaction between points in the plane, computed by a “renormalization.” We prove various of its properties, such as the existence of minimizers, and show in particular, using results from number theory, that among lattice configurations the triangular lattice is the unique minimizer. Its minimization in general remains open. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Communications in Mathematical Physics Springer Journals

Abstract

We introduce a “Coulombian renormalized energy” W which is a logarithmic type of interaction between points in the plane, computed by a “renormalization.” We prove various of its properties, such as the existence of minimizers, and show in particular, using results from number theory, that among lattice configurations the triangular lattice is the unique minimizer. Its minimization in general remains open.
