Abstract
In connection with phase transitions problems in crystals, the term laminate has been successfully used to describe the behavior of such crystals under some special external loads. We will attempt to give this term a precise mathematical significance and explore its relationship with rank-one convexity, quasiconvexity and Young measures. Roughly speaking, laminates are to rank-one convexity what Young measures are to quasiconvexity.
