Abstract
In this paper, we study the minimization of the integral functionals of the type
where , , , and . The degeneracy of the principal part of the functional implies that it is not coercive in and pushes to set and solve the minimization problem in instead of the space . In addition, when the coefficients and are merely in , but satisfy for some the condition , we show the existence of a minimum of the functional which belongs to .
