Mean field limits for Ginzburg-Landau vortices (Q513794)

This paper summarizes common mean field limits for several PDEs with the same non-linear right hand side, including the Ginzburg-Landau equations. First several aspects of bounded number of vortices and large number of vortices are briefly discussed. The main theorem gives an estimate of the modulated energy and a limit for \( \frac{1}{N_{\epsilon}}{}{{}}\langle \nabla u_{\epsilon},iu_{\epsilon}{{}}\rangle \) in terms of the solution for the incompressible Euler equations. The proofs use Gronvalls lemma and Cauchy-Schwartz inequality.
