We prove lower semicontinuity in L 1 Ω for a class of functionals G : B V Ω ⟶ ℝ of the form G u = ∫ Ω g x , ∇ u d x + ∫ Ω ψ x d D s u where g : Ω × ℝ N ⟶ ℝ , Ω ⊂ ℝ N is open and bounded, g · , p ∈ L 1 Ω for each p , satisfies the linear growth condition lim p ⟶ ∞ g x , p / p = ψ x ∈ C Ω ∩ L ∞ Ω , and is convex in p depending only on p for a.e. x . Here, we recall for u ∈ B V Ω ; the gradient measure D u = ∇ u d x + d D s u x is decomposed into mutually singular measures ∇ u d x and d D s u x . As an example, we use this to prove that ∫ Ω ψ x α 2 x + ∇ u 2 d x + ∫ Ω ψ x d D s u is lower semicontinuous in L 1 Ω for any bounded continuous ψ and any α ∈ L 1 Ω . Under minor addtional assumptions on g , we then have the existence of minimizers of functionals to variational problems of the form G u + u − u 0 L 1 for the given u 0 ∈ L 1 Ω , due to the compactness of B V Ω in L 1 Ω .

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
