Abstract

We study autonomous integrals F[u]:=∫ Ω f(Du)dx for u: ℝ n ⊃ Ω.→ ℝ N in the multidimensional calculus of variations, where the integrand f is a strictly quasiconvex function satisfying the (p, q)-growth conditions γ|ξ| p ≤ f(ξ) ≤ Γ(1 + |ξ| q) with exponents 1< p≤ q < p + min{2, p}/2n, Imposing the additional assumption that f resembles the degenerate behavior of the p-energy density, we establish a partial C 1,α-regularity theorem for F-minimizers and a similar theorem for minimizers of a relaxed functional. Our results cover the model case of polyconvex integrands f(ξ): = 1/p|ξ| p + h(det ξ), where h is a smooth convex function with q/n-growth. © de Gruyter 2008.
