Ginzburg-Landau vortices, old and new

Abstract: We present a review of results on vortices in the 2D Ginzburg-Landau model of superconductivity (also relevant for superfluidity and Bose-Einstein condensates), their onset at critical fields, interaction and patterns. We also report on recent joint work with Carlos Roman and Etienne Sandier in which we study the onset of vortex lines in the 3D model and derive an interaction energy for them.
