β¦ Synopsis
We study the Ginzburg-Landau equation on the plane with initial data being the product of n well-separated +1 vortices and spatially decaying perturbations. If the separation distances are O(Ξ΅ -1 ), Ξ΅ 1, we prove that the n vortices do not move on the time scale
the location of the j th vortex. The main ingredients of our proof consist of estimating the large space behavior of solutions, a monotonicity inequality for the energy density of solutions, and energy comparisons. Combining these, we overcome the infinite energy difficulty of the planar vortices to establish the dynamical law.
