On isotropic rank 1 convex functions. (English) Zbl 0945.26018

The main topic of this paper is to establish necessary and sufficient conditions for the rank 1 convexity of a rationally invariant function defined on the set of all tensors with positive determinant on an \(n\)-dimensional vector space. The author gets his results using the representation of such a function received through the singular values. He also proves that the rank 1 convexity is equivalent to a restricted ordinary convexity when the function is expressed in terms of signed invariants of the deformation.
