The calibration method is a classical minimality criterion, which has been recently adapted to functionals with free discontinuities by Alberti, Bouchitté, Dal Maso. In this paper we present a further generalization of this theory to functionals defined on vector-valued maps.
Keywords: Free discontinuity problems, sufficient conditions for minimality, calibration method.
