Convex integration for Lipschitz mappings and counterexamples to regularity

Abstract

We study Lispchitz solutions of partial differential relations $\nabla u\in K$, where $u$ is a vector-valued function in an open subset of $R^n$. In some cases the set of solutions turns out to be surprisingly large. The general theory is then used to construct counter-examples to regularity of solutions of Euler-Lagrange systems satisfying classical ellipticity conditions.Comment: 28 pages published versio
