“The Berry connection of the Ginzburg–Landau vortices”

I will anayze the 2-dimensional GinzburgLandau vortices at critical coupling, and establish asymptotic formulas for the tangent vectors of their moduli space using theorems of Taubes and Bradlow. I will then introduce and compute the corresponding Berry curvature and holonomy in the large area limit.
