Motivated by several contributions from the literature, the authors investigate the connections between the quasiconvexity and the polyconvexity of quadratic forms. They show that if the associated fourth order tensor of a quadratic form has a linear elastic cubic symmetry, then it is quasiconvex if and only if it is polyconvex. Relaxing the hypothesis to cyclic and axis-reflection symmetry, the polyconvexity is lost and a new class of extremal quasiconvex quadratic forms is thus identified. Some non-affine boundary conditions on the potential that can be employed for obtaining sharp bounds on the integrals of the mentioned extremal quasiconvex quadratic forms of \(\nabla u\) over an arbitrary region are also delivered.
