Homogenization and correctors for linear stochastic equations via the periodic unfolding methods

Abstract

In this paper, we use the periodic unfolding method and Prokhorov’s and Skorokhod’s probabilistic compactness results to obtain homogenization and corrector results for stochastic partial differential equations (PDEs) with periodically oscillating coefficients. We show the convergence of the solutions of the original problems to the solutions of the homogenized problems. In contrast to the two-scale convergence method, the corrector results obtained in this paper are without any additional regularity assumptions on the solutions of the original problems
