The div-curl lemma for sequences whose divergence and curl are compact in W^-1,1

Abstract: It is shown that

u_{k} c d o t v_{k}

converges weakly to

u c d o t v

if

u_{k} w e a k t o u

weakly in

L^{p}

and

v_{k} w e a k l y v

weakly in

L^{q}

with

p, q i n (1, i n f t y)

,

1 / p + 1 / q = 1

, under the additional assumptions that the sequences

D i v u_{k}

and

c u r l v_{k}

are compact in the dual space of

W_{0}^{1, i n f t y}

and that

u_{k} c d o t v_{k}

is equi-integrable. The main point is that we only require equi-integrability of the scalar product

u_{k} c d o t v_{k}

and not of the individual sequences.
