Polyconvex function

In the calculus of variations, the notion of polyconvexity is a generalization of the notion of convexity for functions defined on spaces of matrices. The notion of polyconvexity was introduced by John M. Ball as a sufficient conditions for proving the existence of energy minimizers in nonlinear elasticity theory. It is satisfied by a large class of hyperelastic stored energy densities, such as Mooney-Rivlin and Ogden materials. The notion of polyconvexity is related to the notions of convexity, quasiconvexity and rank-one convexity through the following diagram:
