Abstract (VO)
Résumé

We investigate the physical model for a two dimensional rotating Bose–Einstein condensate. We minimize a Gross–Pitaevskii functional defined in $R^{2}$ under the unit mass constraint. We estimate the critical rotational speeds $Ω_{d}$ for having d vortices in the condensate and we determine the location of the vortices. This relies on an asymptotic expansion of the energy.

Nous étudions le modèle physique pour un condensat de Bose–Einstein bidimensionnel en rotation. Nous minimisons une fonctionnelle de Gross–Pitaevskii définie sur $R^{2}$ sous contrainte de masse un. Nous estimons les vitesses critiques $Ω_{d}$ pour lesquelles d tourbillons sont présents dans le condensat, puis nous localisons ces tourbillons. Notre méthode est basée sur un développement asymptotique de l'énergie.
