    Variational convergence for functionals of Ginzburg-Landau type

    In the first part of this paper we prove that functionals of Ginzburg-Landau type for maps from a domain in dimension n+k into R^k converge in a suitable sense to the area functional for surfaces of dimension n (Theorem 1.1). In the second part we modify this result in order to include Dirichlet boundary condition (Theorem 5.5), and, as a corollary, we show that the rescaled energy densities and the Jacobians of minimizers converge to minimal surfaces of dimension n (Corollaries 1.2 and 5.6). Some of these results were announced in the paper "Un risultato di convergenza variazionale per funzionali di tipo Ginzburg-Landau in dimensione qualunque" by the first author

    Limiting models in condensed matter Physics and gradient flows of 1-homogeneous functionals

    No full text
    We survey some recent results on variational and evolution problems concerning a certain class of convex 1-homogeneous functionals for vector-valued maps related to models in phase transitions (Hele-Shaw), superconductivity (Ginzburg-Landau) and superfluidity (Gross-Pitaevskii). Minimizers and gradient flows of such functionals may be characterized as solutions of suitable non-local vectorial generalizations of the classical obstacle problem

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
