Abstract: We study dynamics of vortices in solutions of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation ipartialtu=Deltau+varepsilon2u(1|u|2) on mathbbR2 with nonzero degree at infinity. We prove that vortices move according to the classical Kirchhoff-Onsager ODE for a small but finite coupling parameter varepsilon. By carefully tracking errors we allow for asymptotically large numbers of vortices, and this lets us connect the Gross-Pitaevskii equation on the plane to two dimensional incompressible Euler equations through the work of Schochet [21].
