We exhibit lower bounds on the first occurence of possible zeros (vortices) and compare the solutions with the corresponding solutions to the linear wave equation or variants. The results rely on the use of the Madelung transform, which yields the hydrodynamical form of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation, as well as of an augmented system.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2008-09-23T14:38:45.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "35Q55", "35B35" ], "keywords": [ "gross-pitaevskii equation", "linear wave regime", "long wave-length asymptotics", "linear wave equation", "constant state" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2008arXiv0809.3512B" } } }
