Vortex structure in p-wave superconductors
Stan Alama, Lia Bronsard, Xavier Lamy
We study vortices in p-wave superconductors in a Ginzburg-Landau setting. The state of the superconductor is described by a pair of complex wave functions, and the p-wave symmetric…
Persistence of superconductivity in thin shells beyond
Andres Contreras, Xavier Lamy
In Ginzburg-Landau theory, a strong magnetic field is responsible for the breakdown of superconductivity. This work is concerned with the identification of the region where superco…
Biaxial escape in nematics at low temperature
Andres Contreras, Xavier Lamy
In the present work, we study minimizers of the Landau-de Gennes free energy in a bounded domain . We prove that at low temperature minimizers do not vanish,…
Characterization of function spaces via low regularity mollifiers
Xavier Lamy, Petru Mironescu
Smoothness of a function can be measured in terms of the rate of convergence of to , where is an appropriate mollifier.…
Uniaxial symmetry in nematic liquid crystals
Xavier Lamy
Within the Landau-de Gennes theory of liquid crystals, we study theoretically the equilibrium configurations with uniaxial symmetry. We show that the uniaxial symmetry constraint i…
