Abstract
The first variation condition for the potential energy in nonlinear elasticity for incompressible materials provides a linear functional which vanishes on an appropriately constrained set of variations. We prove a representation theorem for such linear functionals which forms the basis for the existence of a constraint reaction (Lagrange multiplier) field.
