The Ginzburg–Landau model for superconductivity is examined in the one-dimensional case. First, putting the Ginzburg–Landau parameter κ formally equal to infinity, the existence of a minimizer of this reduced Ginzburg–Landau energy is proved. Then asymptotic behaviour for large κ of minimizers of the full Ginzburg–Landau energy is analysed and different convergence results are obtained, according to the exterior magnetic field. Numerical computations illustrate the various behaviours.

The bifurcation of symmetric superconducting solutions from the normal solution is considered for the one-dimensional Ginzburg–Landau equations by the methods of formal asymptotics. The behaviour of the bifurcating branch depends upon the parameters d, the size of the superconducting slab, and κ, the Ginzburg–Landau parameter. It was found numerically by Aftalion & Troy [1] that there are three distinct regions of the (κ, d) plane, labelled S1, S2 and S3, in which there are at most one, two and three symmetric solutions of the Ginzburg–Landau system, respectively. The curve in the (κ, d) plane across which the bifurcation switches from being subcritical to supercritical is identified, which is the boundary between S2 and S1∪S3, and the bifurcation diagram is analysed in its vicinity. The triple point, corresponding to the point at which S1, S2 and S3 meet, is determined, and the bifurcation diagram and the boundaries of S1, S2 and S3 are analysed in its vicinity. The results provide formal evidence for the resolution of some of the conjectures of Aftalion & Troy [1].

Some new global results are given about solutions to the boundary value problem for the Euler–Lagrange equations for the Ginzburg–Landau model of a one-dimensional superconductor. The main advance is a proof that in some parameter range there is a branch of asymmetric solutions connecting the branch of symmetric solutions to the normal state. Also, simplified proofs are presented for some local bifurcation results of Bolley and Helffer. These proofs require no detailed asymptotics for solution of the linear equations. Finally, an error in Odeh's work on this problem is discussed.

AbstractIn this paper, we prove the existence of the ground state for the spinor Bose–Einstein condensates with an external Ioffe–Pitchard magnetic field in the one-dimensional case. We also characterise the ground states of spin-1 Bose–Einstein condensates with an external Ioffe–Pitchard magnetic field; that is, for ferromagnetic systems, we show that, under some condition, searching for the ground state of ferromagnetic spin-1 Bose–Einstein condensates with an external Ioffe–Pitchard magnetic field can be reduced to a ‘one-component’ minimisation problem.

In the preceding paper of this issue of EJAM, Bolley & Helffer [5] add to their extensive set of results on bifurcation in the one-dimensional Ginzburg–Landau model of superconductivity. One of their new results concerns the direction of bifurcation of symmetric solutions. We give another approach to this problem.

This chapter develops a Euclidean, two-dimensional, regions-based theory. As with the semi-Aristotelian account in Chapter 2, the goal here is to recover the now orthodox Dedekind–Cantor continuum on a point-free basis. The chapter derives the Archimedean property for a class of readily postulated orientations of certain special regions, what are called “generalized quadrilaterals” (intended as parallelograms), by which the entire space is covered. Then the chapter generalizes this to arbitrary orientations, and then establishes an isomorphism between the space and the usual point-based one. As in the one-dimensional case, this is done on the basis of axioms which contain no explicit “extremal clause”, and we have no axiom of induction other than ordinary numerical (mathematical) induction.

The paper presents a multidimensional generalization of the Schoenberg operators of higher order. The new operators are powerful tools that can be used for approximation processes in many fields of applied sciences. The construction of these operators uses a symmetry regarding the domain of definition. The degree of approximation by sequences of such operators is given in terms of the first and the second order moduli of continuity. Extending certain results obtained by Marsden in the one-dimensional case, the property of preservation of monotonicity and convexity is proved.

AbstractIn this paper, we study asymptotic behavior of solutions to obstacle problems for p-Laplacians as {p\to\infty}. For the one-dimensional case and for the radial case, we give an explicit expression of the limit. In the n-dimensional case, we provide sufficient conditions to assure the uniform convergence of the whole family of the solutions of obstacle problems either for data f that change sign in Ω or for data f (that do not change sign in Ω) possibly vanishing in a set of positive measure.
