dc.descriptionWe study the structure of symmetric vortices in a Ginzburg-Landau model based on S. C. Zhang's SO(5) theory of high temperature superconductivity and antiferromagnetism. We consider both a full Ginzburg-Landau theory (with Ginzburg-Landau scaling parameter kappa) and a high-kappa limiting model. In all cases we find that the usual superconducting vortices (with normal phase in the central core region) become unstable (not energy minimizing) when the chemical potential crosses a threshold level, giving rise to a new vortex profile with antiferromagnetic ordering in the core region. We show that this phase transition in the cores is due to a bifurcation from a simple eigenvalue of the linearized equations. In the limiting large kappa model we prove that the antiferromagnetic core solutions are always nondegenerate local energy minimizers and prove an exact multiplicity result for physically relevent solutions.
