Abstract: We consider, in a smooth bounded multiply connected domain $domsubset{R}^2$, the Ginzburg-Landau energy $d{E}_v(u)=1/2in{t}_{d}om|u{|}^2+frac14v^{2}in{t}_{d}om(1-|u{|}^2{)}^2$ subject to prescribed degree conditions on each component of $pdom$. In general, minimal energy maps do not exist cite{BeMi1}. When $dom$ has a single hole, Berlyand and Rybalko cite{BeRy1} proved that for small $v$ local minimizers do exist. We extend the result in cite{BeRy1}: $d{E}_v(u)$ has, in domains $dom$ with $2,3,\mathrm{...}$ holes and for small $v$, local minimizers. Our approach is very similar to the one in cite{BeRy1}; the main difference stems in the construction of test functions with energy control.
