Alama, Stanley (ed.) et al., Singularities in PDE and the calculus of variations. Selected papers of the CRM workshop, Montreal, Canada, July 17– 21, 2006. Providence, RI: American Mathematical Society (AMS) (ISBN 978-0-8218-4350-5/pbk). CRM Proceedings and Lecture Notes 44, 11-31 (2008).
Summary: The purpose of this note is twofold. Firstly, we survey some of our recent works concerning the dynamics of vortices in the two dimensional parabolic Ginzburg-Landau equation, emphasizing in particular the vortex-phase interaction. Secondly, we wish to supplement the analysis carried out in these work with a discussion on the initial value problem both for the vortices and the phase.
