Optimal feedback control of Ginzburg-Landau equation for superconductivity via differential inclusion

Yuncheng You (1996)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

Slightly below the transition temperatures, the behavior of superconducting materials is governed by the Ginzburg-Landau (GL) equation which characterizes the dynamical interaction of the density of superconducting electron pairs and the exited electromagnetic potential. In this paper, an optimal control problem of the strength of external magnetic field for one-dimensional thin film superconductors with respect to a convex criterion functional is considered. It is formulated as a nonlinear coefficient...

Robust a priori error analysis for the approximation of degree-one Ginzburg-Landau vortices

Sören Bartels (2005)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

This article discusses the numerical approximation of time dependent Ginzburg-Landau equations. Optimal error estimates which are robust with respect to a large Ginzburg-Landau parameter are established for a semi-discrete in time and a fully discrete approximation scheme. The proofs rely on an asymptotic expansion of the exact solution and a stability result for degree-one Ginzburg-Landau vortices. The error bounds prove that degree-one vortices can be approximated robustly while unstable higher...

Schrödinger operator with magnetic field in domain with corners

Virginie Bonnaillie Noël (2005)

Journées Équations aux dérivées partielles

We present here a simplified version of results obtained with F. Alouges, M. Dauge, B. Helffer and G. Vial (cf [4, 7, 9]). We analyze the Schrödinger operator with magnetic field in an infinite sector. This study allows to determine accurate approximation of the low-lying eigenpairs of the Schrödinger operator in domains with corners. We complete this analysis with numerical experiments.

Strong diamagnetism for general domains and application

Soeren Fournais, Bernard Helffer (2007)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We consider the Neumann Laplacian with constant magnetic field on a regular domain in 2 . Let B be the strength of the magnetic field and let λ 1 ( B ) be the first eigenvalue of this Laplacian. It is proved that B λ 1 ( B ) is monotone increasing for large B . Together with previous results of the authors, this implies the coincidence of all the “third” critical fields for strongly type 2 superconductors.

Symmetries of an extended Hubbard Model

Bianca Cerchiai, Peter Schupp (1997)

Banach Center Publications

The Hamiltonian for an extended Hubbard model with phonons as introduced by A. Montorsi and M. Rasetti is considered on a D-dimensional lattice. The symmetries of the model are studied in various cases. It is shown that for a certain choice of the parameters a superconducting S U q ( 2 ) holds as a true quantum symmetry, but only for D=1.

Systems with Coulomb interactions

Sylvia Serfaty (2014)

Journées Équations aux dérivées partielles

Systems with Coulomb and logarithmic interactions arise in various settings: an instance is the classical Coulomb gas which in some cases happens to be a random matrix ensemble, another is vortices in the Ginzburg-Landau model of superconductivity, where one observes in certain regimes the emergence of densely packed point vortices forming perfect triangular lattice patterns named Abrikosov lattices, a third is the study of Fekete points which arise in approximation theory. In this review, we describe...

The dynamics of a levitated cylindrical permanent magnet above a superconductor.

Michael Schreiner (2003)

Revista Matemática Complutense

When a permanent magnet is released above a superconductor, it is levitated. This is due to the Meissner-effect, i.e. the repulsion of external magnetic fields within the superconductor. In experiments, an interesting behavior of the levitated magnet can be observed: it might start to oscillate with increasing amplitude and some magnets even reach a continuous rotation. In this paper we develop a mathematical model for this effect and identify by analytical methods as well with finite element simulations...
