Assume that \(\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^N\) is a bounded open set whose boundary is sufficiently regular. The Korn's inequality in \(W^{1, p}\), \(1< p< \infty\), reads as \[ \int_\Omega |\nabla u|^p\leq C\int_\Omega |\varepsilon(u)|^p, \] where \(\varepsilon(u)\) is the vector of symmetric derivatives of \(u\) (\(\varepsilon_{11}(u)= u_{1, 1}\), \(\varepsilon_{22}(u)= u_{2, 2}\), \(\varepsilon_{12}(u)= (u_{1, 2}+ u_{2, 1})/2\)). The Korn's inequality implies that the function \(u\) whose symmetric derivatives are in \(L^p\) belongs to \(W^{1,p}\). Note that Korn's inequality does not hold in \(W^{1, 1}\). The author proves the following version of Korn's inequality for \(u\in L^1(B^2, S^1)\) (\(B^2\) is the unit ball in \(\mathbb{R}^2\) and \(S^1\) is the one-dimensional sphere): \[ |\nabla u|^2(x)= 4(\varepsilon_{12}(u))^2(x)+ (\varepsilon_{22}- \varepsilon_{11})^2(u)(x). \] Consequently, if \(u\in L^1(B^2, S^1)\) has its symmetric derivatives in \(L^1\), then \(u\in W^{1,1}(B^2, S^1)\).
