Abstract

We prove geometric rigidity inequalities for incompatible fields in dimension higher than 2. We are able to obtain strong scaling-invariant LpL^p estimates in the supercritical regime, while for critical exponent 1=nn11^* = \frac{n}{n-1} we have a scaling invariant inequality only for the weak-L1L^1 norm. Although not optimal, such an estimate in L1,L^{1 ,\infty} is enough in order to infer a useful lemma which gives BVBV bounds for SO(n)SO(n)-valued fields with bounded Curl.
