Abstract: We study classes of weights ensuring the absence and presence of the Lavrentiev's phenomenon for double phase functionals upon every choice of exponents. We introduce a new sharp scale for weights for which there is no Lavrentiev's phenomenon up to a counterexample we provide. This scale embraces the sharp range for alpha-H"older continuous weights. Moreover, it allows excluding the gap for every choice of exponents q,p>1.


The authors study the problem of the Lavrentiev's phenomenon for the double-phase functional \[ \mathcal{F}[u]=\int_\Omega |\nabla u(x)|^p+a(x)|\nabla u(x)|^q\,dx,\ \Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^n,\ n>1,\ 1\le p,q<\infty,\ a:\Omega\to [0,\infty). \] Main results are theorems on the conditions for existence and non-existence of the Lavrentiev's phenomenon connected with the minimization of the above functional.
