dc.description.abstract | We study a class of symmetric critical points in a variational 2D Landau - de Gennes model where the state of nematic liquid crystals is described by symmetric traceless 3×3 matrices. These critical points play the role of topological point defects carrying a degree k 2 for a nonzero integer k. We prove existence and study the qualitative behavior of these symmetric solutions. Our main result is the instability of critical points when |k| 2. | eng |
