Homogenization of Neumann boundary data with fully nonlinear operator

Sunhi Choi, Inwon C. Kim and Ki-Ahm Lee

Vol. 6 (2013), No. 4, 951–972
Abstract

In this paper we study periodic homogenization problems for solutions of fully nonlinear PDEs in half-spaces with oscillatory Neumann boundary data. We show the existence and uniqueness of the homogenized Neumann data for a given half-space. Moreover, we show that there exists a continuous extension of the homogenized slope as the normal of the half-space varies over “irrational” directions.
