Abstract

We present a rigorous derivation of the point vortex model starting from the two-dimensional nonlinear Schrödinger equation, from the Hamiltonian perspective, in the limit of well-separated, subsonic vortices on the background of a spatially infinite strong condensate. As a corollary, we calculate to high accuracy the self-energy of an isolated elementary Pitaevskii vortex.
