Estimates of Jacobians by subdeterminants

Let ƒ: Ω → ℝⁿ be a mapping in the Sobolev space W^1,n−1(Ω,ℝⁿ), n ≥ 2. We assume that the determinant of the differential matrix Dƒ (x) is nonnegative, while the cofactor matrix D^#ƒ satisfies , where L^p(Ω) is an Orlicz space. We show that, under the natural Divergence Condition on P, see (1.10), the Jacobian lies in L _loc ¹ (Ω). Estimates above and below L _loc ¹ (Ω) are also studied. These results are stronger than the previously known estimates, having assumed integrability conditions on the differential matrix.
