Abstract

We prove partial regularity for local minimizers of quasiconvex integrals of the form I(v) = ∫ΩF(Dv(x))dx, where the integrand f(ξ) has sub-quadratic growth, i.e. |F(ξ)| ≤ L(1 + |ξ|p), with 1 < p < 2. A function uW1,p(Ω;RN) is a W1,q(Ω;RN) local minimizer of I(v) if there exists a δ > 0 such that I(u) ≤ I(v) whenever v and ‖DvDuq ≤ δ.
