On a nonlinear elliptic system from Maxwell-Chern-Simons vortex theory
Abstract
Description
We define an abstract nonlinear elliptic system, admitting a variational structure, and including the vortex equations for some Maxwell-Chern-Simons gauge theories as special cases. We analyze the asymptotic behavior of its solutions, and we provide a general simplified framework for the asymptotics previously derived in those special cases. As a byproduct of our abstract formulation, we also find some new qualitative properties of solutions.
