On the Landau-Lifschitz equation in dimensions at most 4
ABSTRACT: For $n\le 4$ and any bounded domain $\Omega\subset R^n$,
we establish the existence of a global weak solution for the Landau-
Lifschitz equation on $\Omega$ with respect to any smooth initial-boundary
date, which is smooth away from a closed set with locally finite
$n$-dimensional parabolic Hausdoff measure. The approach is based
on the Ginzburg-Landau approximation and the $\eta$-compactness type
apriori estimate under the smallness of renormalized Ginzburg-Landau
energy.

Quadruple Solutions in Three Dimensional Spaces
Abstract: We consider a vector-valued Allen-Cahn equation in the
entire threee dimensional spaces. The equation describes the local
behavior of quadruple junctions in phase seperation. In the talk I will
show the construction of an entire solution and its asymptotic behavior.

Vortex phase diagram with disorder -Ginzburg Landau approach
Abstract:
A metastable supercooled homogeneous vortex liquid state exists down to zero
!0fluctuation temperature!1 in systems of mutually repelling objects. The
zero temperature liquid state therefore serves as a (pseudo) ''fixed point''
controlling the properties of vortex liquid below and even around melting
point. There exists Madelung constant for the liquid in the limit of zero
temperature which is higher than that of the solid by an amount
approximately equal to the latent heat of melting. Based on this picture a
quantitative theory of vortex melting in type II superconductors in the
framework of Ginzburg - Landau approach is presented. The melting line
location is determined and magnetization and specific heat jumps are
calculated. The pointlike disorder shifts the line downwards and makes it
very complicated: several Kauzmann points exist. There are though just two
static phases and a single (universal) line between them. Disorder
induces irreversible effects via replica symmetry breaking. The
irreversibility line is calculated. Therefore the generic phase diagram
contains four phases: liquid, solid, vortex glass and Bragg glass.

Bound state solutions of coupled nonlinear Schrodinger equations
Abstract: In this lecture, I'll introduce spikes and domain walls
coming from bound state solutions of coupled nonlinear
Schrodinger equations which describe multispecies Bose-Einstein
condensates. Due to Feshbach resonance, the sign and quantity
of coupling constants may change in a large region. Hence some
interesting phenomena like spikes and domain walls are observed
by physical experiments. By mathematical analysis, we may obtain
such bound state solutions from coupled nonlinear Schrodinger equations.

On a Problem Related to Vortex Nucleation of 3-Dimensional
Superconductors
Abstract: Type II superconductors in an increasing applied magnetic field
undergo phase transitions from the Meissner state to the mixed
state as the applied field increases to the superheating field. A
simplified model in the form of a system of partial differential
equations involving the operator $curl^2$ was derived by Chapman
and has been used to describe vortex nucleation in
superconductors. For a cylindrical sample in an applied field
parallel to the axis, this system is reduced to a single equation
and has been analyzed. However, for a bulk superconductor
occupying a bounded 3-dimensional domain, the system has not been
well-understood. In this paper we examine the system in a
3-dimensional domain, and derive a priori $C^{2+\alpha}$ estimates
for weak solutions. Then we show that, if the penetration length
is small, the solutions concentrate in a boundary layer at the
surface of the domain, and outside the boundary layer the
solutions decay to zero. Moreover, the current is maximal at a
subset of the surface where the tangential component of the
applied field is maximal. In particular, if the sample is
subjected to a homogeneous magnetic field, the current is maximal
at the surface of the sample where the applied field is tangential
to the surface. This suggests the location of vortex nucleation in
the samples as the applied fields increases to the superheating
field. This is a joint work with Peter Bates of Michigan State
University.
