4 Y Almog The Perodc Problem Consder the problem where + u = h ex u n, (1) Let ω, and let L 1 = ωn hex  = h ex x 1 î () ; L = π ω h ex, where N N The perodc boundary condtons u should satsfy are gven by v(x 1 + L 1,x ) = e h exl 1 x v(x 1,x ) v(x 1,x + L ) = v(x 1,x ) We can now apply the transformaton x ( hex ) x, (3) to obtan ( +x 1 î ) v = v, v(x 1 + L 1,x ) = e ωnx v(x 1,x ), v(x 1,x + L ) = v(x 1,x ), (4a) (4b) (4c) where n the new coordnates L 1 = ωn ; L = π ω It can be easly verfed that the phase change around, where = [0,L 1 ] [0,L ] s πn Thus, the number of vortces n (ncludng multplctes) s N [13] The general soluton of (4a) and (4c) s gven n the form where g n satsfes v = n= g n (x 1 )e ωnx, g n [(x 1 nω) 1]g n = 0 The general soluton of the above ordnary dfferental equaton s g n = C n e 1 (x 1 nω) + D n G(x nω), (5) where G can be expressed n terms of Parabolc Cylnder functons [1]
5 Abrkosov Lattces n Fnte Domans From (4b) we conclude that for all x 1 we must have g n (x 1 + ωn) = g n N (x 1 ), or equvalently that C n = C n N ; D n = D n N By the lemma of emann-lebesgue we must have g n (x 1 ) 0 x 1, n and snce G(x 1 ) s unbounded n, we must have D n = 0 for all n Z Consequently, the general soluton of (4) s v = C n e 1 (x 1 nω) e ωnx, n= where C n+n = C n for all n Thus, we can wrte that where Note that and hence f n = r= v = N 1 n=0 C n f n, e (n+rn)ωx e 1 [x 1 (n+rn)ω] f n+1 (x 1,x ) = e ωx f n (x 1 ω), (6a) (6b) f n π 3/ L = 0 n N 1 (7) () ω We now defne the spaces P = u Hloc 1 u(x 1 + L 1,x ) = e ωnx } u(x 1,x ) ae u(x 1,x + L ) = u(x, (8a) 1,x ) ae ) } U = u P ( +x 1 î u +x 1 î φ = u φ φ Cc (), (8b) and state the followng result: Lemma 1 Let w P Then, w = w 0 + w, (9) where w 0 U 0 and w U0 (the orthogonal complement wth respect to the L () nner product) Furthermore, ( ) +x 1 î w 3 w (10) Proof Snce the restrcton of P to H 1 () s a closed subspace of H 1 (), and snce U 0 s a closed subspace of P (9) follows mmedately
6 Y Almog To prove (10) we recall frst that w must satsfy (4c), and hence t can be represented by the Fourer seres where by (4b) we have Consequently, w = L w = n= w n (x 1 )e ωnx, (11) w n (x 1 + Nω) = w n N (x 1 ) (1) n= L 1 0 w n dx 1 = L N 1 n=0 from whch we also obtan that w n L () for all 0 n N 1 Snce w U0 we must have w, f k = 0 0 k N 1, w n dx 1, (13) where f k s gven by (6b) Substtutng (6b) nto the above and makng use of (11) and (1) yelds w n exp 1 } (x 1 nω) dx 1 = 0 (14) We now make use of (11) to obtan ( ) +x 1 î w = L u e x / = L L 1 n= 0 N 1 n=0 w n (x 1 nω) w n dx 1 w n (x 1 nω) w n dx 1, (15) from whch we obtan that w n Hmag 1 (), where } Hmag w 1 () = w + w xw dx < It s well-known [16] that nf u xu dx = 3 u Hmag 1 () u dx Consequently, by (15) and (13) ( ) +x 1 î w 3L N 1 n=0 w n dx 1 = 3 w

8 Y Almog Proof Let In [5] t was shown that f ρ f = J ˆ + where We note that Jˆ s contnous at ponts where ρ = 0 [5] Integratng (36) over yelds f ρ Snce by (3), we obtan f ρ f = h + 1 ρ (35) ( 1 ) ρ 4, (36) J ˆ ρ = f (37) + ρ ρ (h h ex ) ɛ ρ 1 f n 1 f n + 1 ρ (h h ex ) C, + ρ 4 C + ɛ ρ C [ ] 1/ + Cɛ ρ 4 (38) Usng (33), (34a) easly follows Furthermore, [ [ f ρ ]1/ Hence, Poncaré nequalty [0] then yelds, f ρ ] 1/ Cɛ 3 f + f (h ex ) Cɛ 3 f (h ex ) W 1,1 () Cɛ 3 Consequently, by the Gaglardo-Nrenberg nequalty we obtan that f (h ex ) Cɛ 6, from whch (34b) readly follows To prove (34c) we utlze the well-known nequalty A Â H 1 () (A Â) = h h ex (39)
9 Abrkosov Lattces n Fnte Domans and Sobolev embeddng Fnally, n order to prove (34d) we observe that by (31b), h ρ +A ψ Multplyng (31a) by ρ ψ and ntegratng by parts we obtan ρ +A ψ ρ 4 Hence, by (34a) Combnng the above wth (39) we obtan h Cɛ 4 A Â H () Cɛ We next proceed to obtan some L estmates Lemma 33 Let δ denote the doman δ =x d(x, ) δ}, and let α denote, here and n the sequel, any real number smaller than 1 Then, ψ L ( 1/ɛ ) C α ɛ α/, (310a) + A ψ C α ɛ α/, (310b) L ( 1/ɛ ) h h ex L ( 1/ɛ ) C α ɛ α (310c) Proof Let χ r denote a smooth cutoff functon satsfyng 0 x >r χ r (x) = 1 x < r χ r C χ r C r r (311) Let x 0 /(ɛ) We multply (36) by χ 1/(ɛ) (x x 0 ) and ntegrate by parts to obtan χ f χρ (h ) = χ f B 1 B 1 B 1 ρ + χρ 4, (31) B 1 ɛ ɛ ɛ ɛ where B r = B(x 0,r) For the frst ntegral on the rght-hand sde of (31) we have 1/ 1/ χ f B 1 χ ρ f B 1 B 1 ρ ɛ ɛ ɛ 1/4 1/ Cɛ 1/ 1/ f ρ ρ 4 B 1 ɛ B 1 ɛ
10 Y Almog For the second ntegral we have, utlzng (3b), χρ (h ) B 1 ρ h h ex + ρ h ex B 1 B 1 ɛ ɛ ɛ 1/ Cɛ + C 1 ɛ Let X n = B n 1 ɛ ρ 4 1/ ρ 4 B 1 ɛ ; Y n = B n 1 ɛ f ρ ρ 4 B 1 ɛ Then, by (31) we have [ ɛ X0 + Y 0 1/ ] C X1/ 1/ 1 Y 1 + ɛ X 1 (313) Snce, f ρ h ρ + ρ = +A ψ, we have by (3), X0 + Y 0 C ɛ Snce x 0 was arbtrarly chosen, we can cover B 1/ɛ by a fnte number of dscs of radus 1/(ɛ) Consequently, Substtutng n (313) yelds X 1 + Y 1 C ɛ X0 + Y 0 C ɛ 1/4 The above procedure can recursvely be appled to obtan X0 + Y 0 C nɛ α n, where α n can be determned by the recurrence relaton α n = α n 1 ; α 0 = 1 Clearly, α n 1, and hence, we can conclude that B 1 ɛ ρ 4 C α 1/ 1/ ɛ α α<1 (314)
11 Abrkosov Lattces n Fnte Domans We now apply the transformaton x (x x 0 ) to (31a) n B(x 0, 1/) to obtan ( +Ã ψ = ψ 1 ψ ) n B(0, 1), where ψ(x) = ψ((x x 0 )), Ã = A(k(x x 0 )) Standard ellptc estmates [3], together wth (1), then show that ψ H mag [B(0,1)] C ψ L [B(0,1)] = C ψ L [B(x 0,1/)] C 1/ ψ L 4 [B(x 0,1/)], wheren Snce u H mag (U) = U u + ( +Ã)u + ( +Ã) u ψ 4 L 4 [B(x 0,1/)] ρ 4 ɛ α C α B 1 α<1, (315) ɛ (whch s a rather crude estmate, but appears to be dffcult to mprove) (310a) follows mmedately from Sobolev embeddng To prove (310b) we use bootstrappng and Sobolev embeddng Fnally, to prove (310c) we notce that by (31b), h ρ + A) ψ Consequently, by (310a), (310b), (3b), and (31d) we have h h ex C α ɛ α + C ɛ We note, once agan, that (310) s not the optmal estmate Ideally, one should obtan ψ L ( 1/ɛ ) + + A ψ Cɛ, L ( 1/ɛ ) however, n vew of the crudeness of (315), (310) s the best we can obtan here Let (ɛ, ) denote a rectangle whose sdes length are gven by L 1 = ωn hex where ω, and N N are chosen such that r 1 L 1 L r ; ; L = π ω h ex, (316) 1 ɛ 5 (L 1L ) 1/,

13 Abrkosov Lattces n Fnte Domans By (30) and Hölder nequalty we thus have, Snce by (34c), we obtan I C A Â L 4 () ψ L 4 () ψ L () C p (L 1 L ) 1 1 4p A Â L 4p () ψ L 4 () p>1 A Â L p () A Â L p () Cɛ 3, I C α (L 1 L ) α ɛ 5 α<1 (3) For the last ntegral on the rght-hand-sde of (31) we have η ψ A Â A Â L 4 () ψ L 4 () C α(l 1 L ) α ɛ 8 (33) Consequently, by (31), (3), and (33), +A (ηψ ) = +Â (ηψ ) + O((L 1 L ) α ɛ 5 ) (34) Combnng the above wth (30) and (318) we obtan +Â ũ ũ + η ψ 4 = 1 η ψ + ɛ u 0 + O((L 1 L ) α ɛ 5 ) (35) By (10), however, +Â ũ 3 h ex ũ Consequently, ũ + η ψ 4 1 η ψ + ɛ u 0 + C α (L 1 L ) α ɛ 5 (36) In vew of (317) we obtan 1 η ψ Cɛ ψ, and snce u 0 L () ψ L (), we can combne the above wth (35) to obtan (319) We note that the error term n (319) s ndeed small compared wth the frst term on the rght-hand-sde of (319) We shall demonstrate ths pont later when we obtan a lower bound for ψ L () at the end of 4 Lemma (34) bascally shows that ψ s ndeed close, n the L () sense to u 0 However, n order to obtan a mnmzaton problem for u 0 we need an estmate of (11) To ths end, we need the followng L estmate
