Abstract

We study the asymptotic behavior of energies of Ginzburg–Landau type, for maps from Rn+k into Rk, and when the growth exponent p is strictly larger than k. We prove a compactness and Γ-convergence result, with respect to a suitable topology on the Jacobians, seen as n-dimensional currents. The limit energy is defined on the class of n-integral boundaries M, and its density involves a family of optimal profile constants depending locally on the multiplicity of M.
