A relaxation result in BV for integral functionals with discontinuous integrands
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 May 2007
Abstract
We prove a relaxation theorem in BV for a non coercive functional with linear growth. No continuity of the integrand with respect to the spatial variable is assumed.
