Abstract: We study the problem of minimizing the functional I(varphi)=intlimits_{Omega} W(x,Dvarphi),dx on a new class of mappings. We relax summability conditions for admissible deformations to varphiinWn1(Omega) and growth conditions on the integrand W(x,F). To compensate for that, we impose the finite distortion condition and the condition frac|Dvarphi(x)|nJ(x,varphi)leqM(x)inLs(Omega), s>n1, on the characteristic of distortion. On assuming that the integrand W(x,F) is polyconvex and coercive, we obtain an~existence theorem for the problem of minimizing the functional I(varphi) on a new family of admissible deformations. KEYWORDS: functional minimization problem, nonlinear elasticity, mapping with finite distortion, polyconvexity.
