Abstract: We present a singular value polyconvex conjugation. Employing this conjugation, we derive a necessary and sufficient criterion for polyconvexity of isotropic functions by means of the convexity of a function with respect to the signed singular values. Moreover, we present a new criterion for polyconvexity of isotropic functions by means of matrix invariants.
