Approximation of the effective conductivity of ergodic media by periodization

Houman Owhadi

This paper is concerned with the approximation of the effective conductivity $\sigma (A,\mu )$ associated to an elliptic operator ${\nabla }_{x}A(x,\eta ){\nabla }_x$ where for $x\in {\mathbb{R}}^d$, $d\ge 1$…
