ENERGY CONCENTRATION PROPERTIES OF A p-GINZBURG–LANDAU MODEL

Abstract This paper is concerned with the p-Ginzburg–Landau (p-GL) type model with $p\neq 2$ . First, we obtain global energy estimates and energy concentration properties by the singularity analysis. Next, we give a decay rate of $1-|u_\varepsilon |$ in the domain away from the singularities when $\varepsilon \to 0$ , where $u_\varepsilon $ is a minimizer of p-GL functional with $p \in (1,2)$ . Finally, we obtain a Liouville theorem for the finite energy solutions of the p-GL equation on $\mathbb {R}^2$ .
