Abstract: We show weak lower semi-continuity of functionals assuming the new notion of a "convexly constrained" $mathcalA$-quasiconvex integrand. We assume $mathcalA$-quasiconvexity only for functions defined on a set $K$ which is convex. Assuming this and sufficient integrability of the sequence we show that the functional is still (sequentially) weakly lower semi-continuous along weakly convergent "convexly constrained" $mathcalA$-free sequences. In a motivating example, the integrand is $-de{t}^{frac1d-1}$ and the convex constraint is positive semi-definiteness of a matrix field.
