Let X be a decomposable set, h a convex function defined on a finite dimensional vector space. We show that under transversality assumptions the problem of minimization on X: inf {f(x)+h(g(x))} admits Lagrange multipliers. We consider the case where f is a scalar integral functional and g is a vector valued integral functional. These properties are related to growth conditions between integrands.
