On multiwell Liouville theorems in higher dimension

Abstract: We consider certain subsets of the space of

n i m e s n

matrices of the form

K = c u p_{i = 1}^{m} S O (n) A_{i}

, and we prove that for

p > 1, q g e q 1

and for connected

O m e g a^{'} s u b s e t s u b s e t O m e g a s u b s e t R^{n}

, there exists positive constant

a < 1

depending on

n, p, q, O m e g a, O m e g a^{'}

such that for

v e p s = | d i s t (D u, K) |_{L^{p} (O m e g a)}^{p}

we have

i n f_{R i n K} | D u - R |_{L^{p} (O m e g a^{'})}^{p} l e q M v e p s^{1 / p}

provided

u

satisfies the inequality

| D^{2} u |_{L^{q} (O m e g a)}^{q} l e q a v e p s^{1 - q}

. Our main result holds whenever

m = 2

, and also for {em generic}

m l e n

in every dimension

n g e 3

, as long as the wells

S O (n) A_{1}, ..., S O (n) A_{m}

satisfy a certain connectivity condition. These conclusions are mostly known when

n = 2

, and they are new for

n g e 3

.
