description | act. We consider a refinement of the usual quasiconvexity condition of
Morrey in two dimensions that allows us to prove lower semicontinuity and
existence of minimizers for a class of functionals which are unbounded as the
determinant vanishes and are non-polyconvex in general. This notion, that we
call principal quasiconvexity, arose from the planar theory of quasiconformal
mappings and mappings of finite distortion. We compare it with other quasiconvexity conditions that have appeared in the literature and provide a number
of concrete examples of principally quasiconvex functionals that are not polyconvex. We also describe local conditions which combined with quasiconvexity
yield principal quasiconvexity. The Stoilow factorization, that in the context
of maps of integrable distortion was developed by Iwaniec and Sver´ak, plays a ˇ
prominent role in our app |
