Abstract
In view of the applications to the asymptotic analysis of a family of obstacle problems, we consider a class of convex local functionals F(u , A), defined for all functions u in a suitable vector valued Sobolev space and for all open sets A in R(n). Sufficient conditions are given in order to obtain an integral representation of the form F(u, A) = i ntegral-A f(x, u(x))dmu + nu(A), where mu and nu are Borel measures an d f is convex in the second variable.
