Two distinct numerical approaches, direct solution to the Ginzburg-Landau equation and simulated annealing for minimizing the associated renormalized energy, reveal that the Ginzburg-Landau vortices form a boundary layer instead of a lattice structure as previously conjectured, and that the width of the vortex boundary layer falls exponentially with the number of vortices. The simulated annealing approach, especially suitable for high-temperature superconductors, can be extended to general Ginzburg-Landau models.
