Abstract:In this paper we study stationary graphs for functionals of geometric nature defined on currents or varifolds. The point of view we adopt is the one of differential inclusions, introduced in this context in the recent paper [4]. In particular, given a polyconvex integrand f , we define a set of matrices C f that allows us to rewrite the stationarity condition for a graph with multiplicity as a differential inclusion. Then we prove that if f is assumed to be non-negative, then in C f there is no T ′ N configura… Show more
