Abstract: We provide relaxation for not lower semicontinuous supremal functionals of the type

W^{1, i n f t y} (O m e g a; m a t h b b R^{d}) i u m a p s t o s u p e s s_{x i n O m e g a} f (a b l a u (x))

in the vectorial case, where

O m e g a s u b s e t m a t h b b R^{N}

is a Lipschitz, bounded open set, and

f

is level convex. The connection with indicator functionals is also enlightened, thus extending previous lower semicontinuity results in that framework. Finally we discuss the

L^{p}

-approximation of supremal functionals, with non-negative, coercive densities

f = f (x, x i)

, which are only

L^{N} o t i m e s B_{d i m e s N}

-measurable.
