Abstract
We consider the minimization of a p-Ginzburg-Landau energy functional over the class of radially symmetric functions of degree one. We prove the existence of a unique minimizer in this class, and show that its modulus is monotone increasing and concave. We also study the asymptotic limit of the minimizers as p → ∞. Finally, we prove that the radially symmetric solution is locally stable for 2 < p ≤ 4.
