Weak lower semicontinuity by means of anisotropic parametrized measures

It is well known that besides oscillations, sequences bounded only in $L^1$ can also develop concentrations, and if the latter occurs, we can at most hope for weak$^*$ convergence in the sense of measures. Here we derive a new tool to handle mutual interferences of an oscillating and concentrating sequence with another weakly converging sequence. We introduce a couple of explicit examples showing a variety of possible kinds of behavior and outline some applications in Sobolev spaces.
