We give a new approach to study the lower semicontinuity properties of nonautonomous variational integrals whose energy densities satisfy general growth conditions. We apply the theory of Young measures and properties of Orlicz-Sobolev spaces to prove semicontinuity result.

AbstractWe give an extension of the theory of relaxation of variational integrals in classical Sobolev spaces to the setting of metric Sobolev spaces. More precisely, we establish a general framework to deal with the problem of finding an integral representation for “relaxed” variational functionals of variational integrals of the calculus of variations in the setting of metric measure spaces. We prove integral representation theorems, both in the convex and non-convex case, which extend and complete previous results in the setting of euclidean measure spaces to the setting of metric measure spaces. We also show that these integral representation theorems can be applied in the setting of Cheeger–Keith's differentiable structure.

This chapter presents a selection of some of the most important results in the theory of Sobolev spacesn. Special emphasis is placed on embedding theorems and the question as to whether an embedding map is compact or not. Some results concerning the k-set contraction nature of certain embedding maps are given, for both bounded and unbounded space domains: also the approximation numbers of embedding maps are estimated and these estimates used to classify the embeddings.
