Abstract: We prove a stability result of isometric immersions of hypersurfaces in Riemannian manifolds, with respect to $L^p$-perturbations of their fundamental forms: For a manifold $M^d$ endowed with a reference metric and a reference shape operator, we show that a sequence of immersions $f_n:M^{d}o{N}^{d+1}$, whose pullback metrics and shape operators are arbitrary close in $L^p$ to the reference ones, converge to an isometric immersion having the reference shape operator. This result is motivated by elasticity theory and generalizes a previous result by the authors to a general target manifold $N$, removing a constant curvature assumption. The method of proof differs from that in Alpern et al.: it extends a Young measure approach that was used in codimension-0 stability results, together with an appropriate relaxation of the energy and a regularity result for immersions satisfying given fundamental forms. In addition, we prove two related quantitative (rather than asymptotic) stability results: a codimension-1 result in the case of Euclidean target, similar to Ciarlet et al. (Anal. Appl. 2019) but with no a-priori assumed bounds, and a codimension-0 result between spheres, strengthening a result in Chen et al. (J. Math. Pures Appl. 2022).
