EnglishRelaxation problems for a functional of the type $G(u) = int_Omega g(x, abla u)dx$ are analyzed, where $Omega$ is a bounded smooth open subset of $R^N$ and $g$ is a Carath´eodory function. The admissible functions u are forced to satisfy a pointwise gradient constraint of the type $ abla u(x) in C(x)$ for a.e. $ x in Omega, C(x)$ being, for every $x in Omega$, a bounded convex subset of $R^N$, in general varying with $x$ not necessarily in a smooth way. The relaxed functionals $G_{PC^1}(Omega)$ and $G_{W^{1,infty}(Omega)$ of $G$ obtained letting $u$ vary respectively in $PC^1(Omega)$, the set of the piecewise $C^1$-functions in $Omega$, and in $W^{1,infty}(Omega)$ in the definition of $G$ are considered. For both of them integral representation results are proved, with an explicit representation formula for the density of $G_{PC^1}(Omega)$. Examples are proposed showing that in general the two densities are different, and that the one of $G_{W^{1,infty}}(Omega)$ is not obtained from $g$ simply by convexification arguments. Eventually, the results are discussed in the framework of Lavrentieff phenomenon, showing by means of an example that deep differences occur between $G_{PC^1}(Omega)$ and $G_{W^{1,infty}(Omega)}$. Results in more general settings are also obtained.

| Abstract: | Relaxation problems for a functional of the type $G(u) = int_Omega g(x, abla u)dx$ are analyzed, where $Omega$ is a bounded smooth open subset of $R^N$ and $g$ is a Carath´eodory function. The admissible functions u are forced to satisfy a pointwise gradient constraint of the type $ abla u(x) in C(x)$ for a.e. $ x in Omega, C(x)$ being, for every $x in Omega$, a bounded convex subset of $R^N$, in general varying with $x$ not necessarily in a smooth way. The relaxed functionals $G_{PC^1}(Omega)$ and $G_{W^{1,infty}(Omega)$ of $G$ obtained letting $u$ vary respectively in $PC^1(Omega)$, the set of the piecewise $C^1$-functions in $Omega$, and in $W^{1,infty}(Omega)$ in the definition of $G$ are considered. For both of them integral representation results are proved, with an explicit representation formula for the density of $G_{PC^1}(Omega)$. Examples are proposed showing that in general the two densities are different, and that the one of $G_{W^{1,infty}}(Omega)$ is not obtained from $g$ simply by convexification arguments. Eventually, the results are discussed in the framework of Lavrentieff phenomenon, showing by means of an example that deep differences occur between $G_{PC^1}(Omega)$ and $G_{W^{1,infty}(Omega)}$. Results in more general settings are also obtained. | |
