We prove that the fundamental vortices (n=1,-1) are stable for all values of the coupling constant, k, and we prove that the higher-degree vortices (|n| > 1) are stable for k < 1 and unstable for k > 1. This resolves a long-standing conjecture.28 pages, LatexAnalysis of PDEsMathematical Physics35J60 (Primary), 82D55 (Secondary)The Stability of Magnetic Vorticestext
