Reviews

In the course of their argument, the authors traverse a broad range of nontrivial analysis: elliptic equations on weighted Holder and Sobolev spaces, radially symmetric solutions, gluing techniques, Pokhozhaev-type arguments for solutions of semilinear elliptic equations, and more. Clearly aimed at a research audience, this book provides a fascinating and original account of the theory of Ginzburg-Landau vortices. --Mathematical Reviews
