We consider the linearization of the time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau system near the normal state. We assume that an electric
current is applied through the sample, which captures the whole plane, inducing thereby, a magnetic field. We show that independently
of the current, the normal state is always stable. Using Fourier analysis the detailed behaviour of solutions is obtained
as well. Relying on semi-group theory we then obtain the spectral properties of the steady-state elliptic operator. 相似文献
We investigate nodal sets of magnetic Schr?dinger operators with zero magnetic field, acting on a non simply connected domain
in ℝ2. For the case of circulation 1/2 of the magnetic vector potential around each hole in the region, we obtain a characterisation
of the nodal set, and use this to obtain bounds on the multiplicity of the groundstate. For the case of one hole and a fixed
electric potential, we show that the first eigenvalue takes its highest value for circulation 1/2.

We compute the \(L^2\)-norm of any minimizer of the Ginzburg–Landau functional in a planar domain with a finite number of corners. Our computations are valid for a uniform applied magnetic field, large Ginzburg–Landau parameter and in the regime where superconductivity is confined near the corners of the domain. 相似文献
We consider the semiclassical Dirichlet Pauli operator in bounded connected domains in the plane. Rather optimal results have been obtained in previous papers by Ekholm–Kova?ík–Portmann and Helffer–Sundqvist for the asymptotics of the ground state energy in the semiclassical limit when the magnetic field has constant sign. In this paper, we focus on the case when the magnetic field changes sign. We show, in particular, that the ground state energy of this Pauli operator will be exponentially small as the semiclassical parameter tends to zero and give lower bounds and upper bounds for this decay rate. Concrete examples of magnetic fields changing sign on the unit disk are discussed. Various natural conjectures are disproved, and this leaves the research of an optimal result in the general case still open.
We address the question of determining the eigenvalues \({\lambda_{n}}\) (listed in nondecreasing order, with multiplicities) for which Courant’s nodal domain theorem is sharp i.e., for which there exists an associated eigenfunction with \({n}\) nodal domains (Courant-sharp eigenvalues). Following ideas going back to Pleijel (1956), we prove that the only Courant-sharp eigenvalues of the flat equilateral torus are the first and second, and that the only Courant-sharp Dirichlet eigenvalues of the equilateral triangle are the first, second, and fourth eigenvalues. In the last section we sketch similar results for the right-angled isosceles triangle and for the hemiequilateral triangle. 相似文献
Mellin's transform is used to establish a functional calculus of a class of pseudodifferential-operators depending on a small parameter h > 0. We apply for exeample this result to prove the semi-classical behaviour of the discrete spectrum of Schrödinger operators ?h2 · Δ + V, and of Dirac operators h ∑j = 13αjDj + α4 ? V. 相似文献
Given a bounded open set Ω in
\mathbbRn{\mathbb{R}^n} (or a Riemannian manifold) and a partition of Ω by k open sets Dj, we can consider the quantity maxjλ(Dj) where λ(Dj) is the groundstate energy of the Dirichlet realization of the Laplacian in Dj. If we denote by
\mathfrakLk(W){\mathfrak{L}_k(\Omega)} the infimum over all the k-partitions of maxjλ(Dj), a minimal (spectral) k-partition is then a partition which realizes the infimum. Although the analysis is rather standard when k = 2 (we find the nodal domains of a second eigenfunction), the analysis of higher k’s becomes non trivial and quite interesting. 相似文献
This Letter gives detailed proofs concerning the analysis of the pair correlations for a nonconvex model. Using the transfer matrix approach, the problem is reduced to the analysis of the spectral properties of this transfer operator. Although the problem is similar to the semiclassical study of the Kac operator presented in a paper with M. Brunaud, which was devoted to the study of exp-(v/2) exp h2 exp-(v/2) for h small, new features appear for the model exp-(v/2h) exp h exp-(v/2h). Our principal results concern the splitting of this operator between the two largest eigenvalues. We give an upper and a lower bound for this splitting in the semi-classical regime. As a corollary, we get good control of the decay of the pair correlation. Some of the results were announced in a previous paper. Related WKB constructions will be developed in a later paper.Inspired by papers by M. Kac [15, 16]. 相似文献
Using recent results by the authors on the spectral asymptotics of the Neumann Laplacian with magnetic field, we give precise estimates on the critical field,
, describing the appearance of superconductivity in superconductors of type II. Furthermore, we prove that the local and global definitions of this field coincide. Near
only a small part, near the boundary points where the curvature is maximal, of the sample carries superconductivity. We give precise estimates on the size of this zone and decay estimates in both the normal (to the boundary) and parallel variables.The two authors are supported by the European Research Network ‘Postdoctoral Training Program in Mathematical Analysis of Large Quantum Systems’ with contract number HPRN-CT-2002-00277, and the ESF Scientific Programme in Spectral Theory and Partial Differential Equations (SPECT).
