Abstract

Let ΩR3\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^3 be an open and bounded set with Lipschitz boundary and outward unit normal ν\nu. For 1<p<1<p<\infty we establish an improved version of the generalized LpL^p-Korn inequality for incompatible tensor fields PP in the new Banach space W01,p,r(devsymCurl;Ω,R3×3)={PLp(Ω,R3×3)devsymCurlPLr(Ω,R3×3), devsym(P×ν)=0 on Ω} W^{1,\,p,\,r}_0(\operatorname{dev}\operatorname{sym}\operatorname{Curl}; \Omega,\mathbb R^{3\times3}) = \{ P \in L^p(\Omega,\mathbb R^{3\times3}) \mid \operatorname{dev} \operatorname{sym} \operatorname{Curl} P \in L^r(\Omega,\mathbb R^{3\times3}),\ \operatorname{dev} \operatorname{sym} (P \times \nu) = 0 \text{ on $\partial \Omega$}\} where r[1,),1r1p+13,r>1if p=32. r \in [1, \infty), \qquad \frac1r \le \frac1p + \frac13, \qquad r >1 \quad \text{if $p = \frac32$.} Specifically, there exists a constant c=c(p,Ω,r)>0c=c(p,\Omega,r)>0 such that the inequality PLpc(symPLp+devsymCurlPLr) \|P \|_{L^p}\leq c\,\left(\|\operatorname{sym} P \|_{L^p} + \|\operatorname{dev}\operatorname{sym} \operatorname{Curl} P \|_{L^{r}}\right) holds for all tensor fields PW01,p,r(devsymCurl)P\in W^{1,\,p, \, r}_0(\operatorname{dev}\operatorname{sym}\operatorname{Curl}). Here, devX:=X13tr(X)1\operatorname{dev} X := X -\frac13 \operatorname{tr}(X)\,\mathbb{1} denotes the deviatoric (trace-free) part of a 3×33 \times 3 matrix XX and the boundary condition is understood in a suitable weak sense.
