The phenomenological (Landau) description of the ordered condensed matter from magnets to Bose condensates -- Simplest topological defects -- Topological defects and their classification -- Repulsion between solitons and viable vortex matter created by a Gauge field -- Abrikosov…
Ginzburg-Landau theory is an important tool in condensed matter physics research, describing the ordered phases of condensed matter, including the dynamics, elasticity, and thermodynamics of the condensed configurations. In this systematic introduction to Ginzberg-Landau theory,…

Vortices comprising swirling motion of matter are observable in classical systems at all scales ranging from atomic size to the scale of galaxies. In quantum mechanical systems, such vortices are robust entities whose behaviours are governed by the strict rules of topology. The …
