| Summary: | We consider local minimizers $u : \Bbb R^2\supset \Omega \to \Bbb R^N$ of variational integrals like $\int_\Omega [(1+|\partial_1 u|^{2})^{p/2}+(1+|\partial_2 u|^{2})^{q/2}]\,dx$ or its degenerate variant $\int_\Omega [|\partial_1 u|^p+|\partial_2 u|^q]\,dx$ with exponents $2\leq p < q < \infty $ which do not fall completely in the category studied in Bildhauer M., Fuchs M., Calc. Var. {\bf 16} (2003), 177--186. We prove interior $C^{1,\alpha}$- respectively $C^{1}$-regularity of $u$ under the condition that $q < 2p$. For decomposable variational integrals of arbitrary order a similar result is established by the way extending the work Bildhauer M., Fuchs M., Ann. Acad. Sci. Fenn. Math. {\bf 31} (2006), 349--362. (English) |
