Continuity in H1-norms of surfaces in terms of the L1-norms of their fundamental forms
[Continuité en norme H1 de surfaces en terme des normes L1 de leurs formes fondamentales]
Comptes Rendus. Mathématique, Volume 341 (2005) no. 3, pp. 201-206.

L'objectif principal de cette Note est de montrer comment on peut établir une « inégalité de Korn non linéaire sur une surface ». Cette inégalité implique en particulier la propriété de continuité séquentielle suivante, intéressante par elle-même. Soit ω un domaine de R2, soit θ:ω¯R3 une immersion régulière, et soit θk:ω¯R3, k1, des applications ayant les propriétés suivantes : Elles appartiennent à l'espace H1(ω) ; les champs de vecteurs normaux aux surfaces θk(ω), k1, sont définis presque partout dans ω et appartiennent aussi à l'espace H1(ω) ; les modules des rayons de courbure principaux des surfaces θk(ω) sont uniformément minorés par une constante strictement positive ; finalement, les trois formes fondamentales des surfaces θk(ω) convergent dans L1(ω) vers les trois formes fondamentales de la surface θ(ω) lorsque k. Alors, à des isométries propres de R3 près, les surfaces θk(ω) convergent dans H1(ω) vers la surface θ(ω) lorsque k.

The main purpose of this Note is to show how a ‘nonlinear Korn's inequality on a surface’ can be established. This inequality implies in particular the following interesting per se sequential continuity property for a sequence of surfaces. Let ω be a domain in R2, let θ:ω¯R3 be a smooth immersion, and let θk:ω¯R3, k1, be mappings with the following properties: They belong to the space H1(ω); the vector fields normal to the surfaces θk(ω), k1, are well defined a.e. in ω and they also belong to the space H1(ω); the principal radii of curvature of the surfaces θk(ω) stay uniformly away from zero; and finally, the three fundamental forms of the surfaces θk(ω) converge in L1(ω) toward the three fundamental forms of the surface θ(ω) as k. Then, up to proper isometries of R3, the surfaces θk(ω) converge in H1(ω) toward the surface θ(ω) as k.
