Abstract
This article is concerned with the dynamical properties of solutions of the time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau (TDGL) equations of superconductivity. It is shown that the TDGL equations define a dynamical process when the applied magnetic field varies with time, and a dynamical system when the applied magnetic field is stationary. The dynamical system describes the large-time asymptotic behavior: Every solution of the TDGL equations is attracted to a set of stationary solutions, which are divergence free. These results are obtained in the {open_quotes}{phi} = -{omega}({gradient}{center_dot}A){close_quotes} gauge, which reduces to the standard {close_quotes}{phi} = -{gradient}{center_dot}A{close_quotes} gauge if {omega} = 1 and to the zero-electric potential gauge if {omega} = 0; the treatment captures both in a unified framework. This gauge forces the London gauge, {gradient}{center_dot}A = 0, for any stationary solution of the TDGL equations.
