Abstract: This paper deals with higher gradient integrability for $sigma$-harmonic functions $u$ with discontinuous coefficients $sigma$, i.e. weak solutions of $div(sigmaablau)=0$. We focus on two-phase conductivities, and study the higher integrability of the corresponding gradient field $|ablau|$. The gradient field and its integrability clearly depend on the geometry, i.e., on the phases arrangement. We find the optimal integrability exponent of the gradient field corresponding to any pair $sigm{a}_1,sigm{a}_2$ of positive definite matrices, i.e., the worst among all possible microgeometries. We also show that it is attained by so-called exact solutions of the corresponding PDE. Furthermore, among all two-phase conductivities with fixed ellipticity, we characterize those that correspond to the worse integrability.
