Abstract: In this note we show that a sharp rigidity estimate and a sharp Korn's inequality for matrix-valued fields whose incompatibility is a bounded measure can be obtained as a consequence of a Hodge decomposition with critical integrability due to Bourgain and Brezis.


The authors derive a sharp rigidity estimate and a sharp Korn's inequality for matrix-valued fields. The main results follow: Given an open, bounded, connected and Lipschitz set \(\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n\), \(n\ge 2\), there exists \(C>0\) such that for every \(\beta \in L^1(\Omega;\mathbb{R}^{n\times n})\) with \(\operatorname{Curl}\beta \in \mathcal{M}(\Omega;\mathbb{R}^{n\times n\times n})\), there exist a rotation \(R\in \operatorname{SO}(n)\) such that \[ \|\beta-R\|_{L^{1^*}}(\Omega)\le C\big(\|\operatorname{dist}(\beta,\operatorname{SO}(n)\| +|\operatorname{Curl}\beta|(\Omega)\big). \] and an antisymmetric matrix \(A\) such that \[ \|\beta-A\|_{L^{1^*}}(\Omega)\le C\big(\|\beta+\beta^T\|_{L^{1^*}}(\Omega) +|\operatorname{Curl}\beta|(\Omega)\big) \] where \(\mathcal{M}(\Omega;\mathbb{R}^{n\times n\times n}\) is the set of Radon measures on \(\Omega\) with values in \(\mathbb{R}^{n\times n\times n}\) and \(1^* = n/(n-1)\) is the Sobolev conjugate exponent.
