      Starting from the formula for the renormalized energy in the Ginzburg-Landau model of superconductivity in two dimensions, the author uses distribution theory and the London approximation to find an approximate integral formula for this energy. The main theorem states that among the lattice configurations of volume \(2 \pi\), the unique minimizer of the renormalized energy \(W\) is the triangular lattice.
