We study a variational model which combines features of the Ginzburg-Landau model in 2D and of the Mumford-Shah functional. As in the classical Ginzburg-Landau theory, a prescribed number of point vortices appear in the small energy regime; the model allows for discontinuities, and the energy penalizes their length. The novel phenomenon here is that the vortices have a fractional degree $1/m$ with $mgeq 2$ prescribed. Those vortices must be connected by line discontinuities to form clusters of total integer degrees. The vortices and line discontinuities are therefore coupled through a topological constraint. As in the Ginzburg-Landau model, the energy is parameterized by a small length scale $varepsilon>0$. We perform a complete $Gamma$-convergence analysis of the model as $varepsilondownarrow0$ in the small energy regime. We then study the structure of minimizers of the limit problem. In particular, we show that the line discontinuities of a minimizer solve a variant of the Steiner problem. We finally prove that for small $varepsilon>0$, the minimizers of the original problem have the same structure away from the limiting vortices.

We consider a Ginzburg-Landau type energy with a piecewise constant pinning term $a$ in the potential $(a^2 - |u|^2)^2$. The function $a$ is different from 1 only on finitely many disjoint domains, called the {it pinning domains}. These pinning domai
ns model small impurities in a homogeneous superconductor and shrink to single points in the limit $vto0$; here, $v$ is the inverse of the Ginzburg-Landau parameter. We study the energy minimization in a smooth simply connected domain $Omega subset mathbb{C}$ with Dirichlet boundary condition $g$ on $d O$, with topological degree ${rm deg}_{d O} (g) = d >0$. Our main result is that, for small $v$, minimizers have $d$ distinct zeros (vortices) which are inside the pinning domains and they have a degree equal to 1. The question of finding the locations of the pinning domains with vortices is reduced to a discrete minimization problem for a finite-dimensional functional of renormalized energy. We also find the position of the vortices inside the pinning domains and show that, asymptotically, this position is determined by {it local renormalized energy} which does not depend on the external boundary conditions.
We discuss fluctuation-induced forces in a system described by a continuous Landau-Ginzburg model with a quenched disorder field, defined in a $d$-dimensional slab geometry $mathbb R^{d-1}times[0,L]$. A series representation for the quenched free ene
rgy in terms of the moments of the partition function is presented. In each moment an order parameter-like quantity can be defined, with a particular correlation length of the fluctuations. For some specific strength of the non-thermal control parameter, it appears a moment of the partition function where the fluctuations associated to the order parameter-like quantity becomes long-ranged. In this situation, these fluctuations become sensitive to the boundaries. In the Gaussian approximation, using the spectral zeta-function method, we evaluate a functional determinant for each moment of the partition function. The analytic structure of each spectral zeta-function depending on the dimension of the space for the case of Dirichlet, Neumann Laplacian and also periodic boundary conditions is discussed in a unified way. Considering the moment of the partition function with the largest correlation length of the fluctuations, we evaluate the induced force between the boundaries, for Dirichlet boundary conditions. We prove that the sign of the fluctuation-induced force for this case depend in a non-trivial way on the strength of the non-thermal control parameter.
We study the Ginzburg-Landau model of type-I superconductors in the regime of small external magnetic fields. We show that, in an appropriate asymptotic regime, flux patterns are described by a simplified branched transportation functional. We derive
the simplified functional from the full Ginzburg-Landau model rigorously via $Gamma$-convergence. The detailed analysis of the limiting procedure and the study of the limiting functional lead to a precise understanding of the multiple scales contained in the model.
We study the Cauchy problem for a coupled system of a complex Ginzburg-Landau equation with a quasilinear conservation law $$ left{begin{array}{rlll} e^{-itheta}u_t&=&u_{xx}-|u|^2u-alpha g(v)u& v_t+(f(v))_x&=&alpha (g(v)|u|^2)_x& end{array}right. qqu
ad xinmathbb{R},, t geq 0, $$ which can describe the interaction between a laser beam and a fluid flow (see [Aranson, Kramer, Rev. Med. Phys. 74 (2002)]). We prove the existence of a local in time strong solution for the associated Cauchy problem and, for a certain class of flux functions, the existence of global weak solutions. Furthermore we prove the existence of standing waves of the form $(u(t,x),v(t,x))=(U(x),V(x))$ in several cases.
We study Gamma-convergence of graph based Ginzburg-Landau functionals, both the limit for zero diffusive interface parameter epsilon->0 and the limit for infinite nodes in the graph m -> infinity. For general graphs we prove that in the limit epsilon
-> 0 the graph cut objective function is recovered. We show that the continuum limit of this objective function on 4-regular graphs is related to the total variation seminorm and compare it with the limit of the discretized Ginzburg-Landau functional. For both functionals we also study the simultaneous limit epsilon -> 0 and m -> infinity, by expressing epsilon as a power of m and taking m -> infinity. Finally we investigate the continuum limit for a nonlocal means type functional on a completely connected graph.
