We prove an upper bound for the Aviles–Giga problem, which involves the minimization of the energy E ε ( v ) = ε Ω | 2 v | 2 d x + ε 1 Ω ( 1 | v | 2 ) 2 d x over v H 2 ( Ω ) , where ε > 0 is a small parameter. Given v W 1 , ( Ω ) such that v B V and | v | = 1 a.e., we construct a family { v ε } satisfying: v ε v in W 1 , p ( Ω ) and E ε ( v ε ) 1 3 J v | + v v | 3 d N 1 as ε goes to 0.

Given $v\in W^{1,\infty }(\Omega )$ such that $\nabla v\in BV$ and $|\nabla v|=1$ a.e., we construct a family $\lbrace v_\varepsilon \rbrace $ satisfying: $v_\varepsilon \rightarrow v$ in $W^{1,p}(\Omega )$ and $E_\varepsilon (v_\varepsilon )\rightarrow \frac{1}{3}\int _{J_{\nabla v}}|\nabla ^+v−\nabla ^−v|^3d\mathcal {H}^{N−1}$ as $\varepsilon $ goes to 0.
