Stochastic Homogenization of Reflected Diffusion Processes

Abstract

We investigate a functional limit theorem (homogenization) for Reflected Stochastic Differential Equations on a half-plane with stationary coefficients when it is necessary to analyze both the effective Brownian motion and the effective local time. We prove that the limiting process is a reflected non-standard Brownian motion. Beyond the result, this problem is known as a prototype of non-translation invariant problem making the usual method of the "environment as seen from the particle" inefficient.
