Abstract
We discuss variational integrals which are defined on differential forms associated with a given first order elliptic complex. This general framework provides us with better understanding of the concepts of convexity, even in the classical setting $D'(ℝ^n,ℝ) {∇\over →} D'(ℝ^n,ℝ^n) {{curl}\over{→}} D'(ℝ^n,ℝ^{n×n})$
