. We provide a mathematical proof of the existence of traveling vortex rings solutions to the Gross–Pitaevskii (GP) equation in dimension N ≥ 3. We also extend the asymptotic analysis of the free field Ginzburg–Landau equation to a larger class of equations, including the Ginzburg– Landau equation for superconductivity as well as the traveling wave equation for GP. In particular we rigorously derive a curvature equation for the concentration set (i.e. line vortices if N = 3).
