For two-dimensional, immersed closed surfaces f:Σ→Rn, we study the curvature functionals Ep(f) and Wp(f) with integrands (1+∣A∣2)p/2 and (1+∣H∣2)p/2, respectively. Here A is the second fundamental form, H is the mean curvature and we assume p>2. Our main result asserts that W2,p critical points are smooth in both cases. We also prove a compactness theorem for Wp-bounded sequences. In the case of Ep this is just Langer's theorem [16], while for Wp we have to impose a bound for the Willmore energy strictly below 8π as an additional condition. Finally, we establish versions of the Palais–Smale condition for both functionals.
